Conway Community News - Week 12

Engaging the Community 

Week 12 - October 23rd, 2022

Greetings Conway Families, 

Our Conway Crew is making community connections.   As an Expeditionary Learning School, we work to build and sustain relationships with community organizations and cultural institutions that support student learning.   This week the YMCA brought Lights on After school, a Trunk or Treat and Dia De Los Muertos Celebration to Conway.  This was part of a larger nationwide event with after school programs coming together to celebrate the work of these must needed programs.   Students, parents, teachers, and community members were treated to a free event that celebrated cultural diversity through the arts and fun activities for all. 

 This next week in October is Red-Ribbon Week.  Friday, we will close out the week with a Conway tradition, our Costume Day Parade. Please review the letter linked here for costume guidelines Conway Parade Informational Flyer.

This Friday Conway hosted the first parent workshop.  Families learned about the Expeditoinary Learning model.  Our instructional coach facilitated the learning and student ambassadors led parents on a campus tour.  We plan to bring more workshops to our families this year.  

THANK YOU Parents, Grandparents, Aunts, Uncles, Friends, supporters of Conway, and most importantly our EPIC students!  You helped our school  quadruple our EPIC RUN fundraiser expectations!  Your Associated Student Body (ASB) initially hoped for $3,000, however, we earned over  $13,000!   This included purchasing EPIC RUN T-Shirts for every child!

We are grateful for the opportunity to inspire students to discover their unlimited potential through Excellence, Perseverance, Integrity, and Compassion.  Together we are creating an EPIC school.  We are in this together and believe, We Are Crew, not passengers.  

In Crew, 

Principal Meglich
