We can’t wait to see you at our Open House next Thursday, August 7, from 1:00–6:00pm! 🐾✨ Come meet your teachers, tour the building, and get ready for an amazing year at Morrilton Elementary! 💙📚

We are proud to announce that the South Conway County School District will be implementing the Community Eligibility Provision (CEP) for the 2025–2026 school year! 🎉

What does this mean for families?

✅ All enrolled students in PreK–12 will receive a healthy breakfast and lunch every school day at no cost, regardless of household income.
✅ No forms or applications are required—your child is automatically eligible.
✅ It’s one more way we are working to reduce barriers, support families, and ensure every scholar is ready to learn.

This is about more than meals—it’s about equity, access, and taking care of our learning community. When students are well-fed, they are better prepared to focus, grow, and thrive.

If you have questions, please contact us at 501-354-9400 ext. 1023.
