Poetry detectives at work! 📖✨ Mrs. Walsh’s class is diving into poetry, identifying refrains, and annotating their texts to show their thinking. They’re reading closely, looking for patterns, and digging deeper into what the poet is saying. We love watching their thinking come to life on the page! 📝💭 #loveservecare4people

Mrs. Woody's 2nd graders are putting in the work! ✏️🧠 They’re building their math fluency, practicing those facts, and growing more confident with every problem they solve. 💪➕➖ #loveservecare4people

We had a GREAT first day back! Thank you, families, for your patience, flexibility, and grace as we got everyone where they needed to be. ❤️ As we head into Day 2, we know afternoon traffic may still take a little extra time.

By next week, our traffic flow should be running like a well-oiled machine. Thank you for working with us, helping us keep everyone safe, and making our first days back so successful.

Dear Parents and Guardians of Bus Riders,

With afternoon temperatures reaching 100 degrees or higher, we want to take additional steps to help keep our students safe and as comfortable as possible during their bus ride home.

Beginning today, the South Conway County School District will provide cold bottled water to students riding our buses home in the afternoons when temperatures are extremely hot.

Our school buses are equipped with air conditioning; however, during extreme heat, it can be difficult for the air conditioning systems to keep up—especially when buses are making frequent stops and opening their doors. When appropriate, we will also allow bus windows to be opened to increase airflow and help keep the buses cooler.

We will continue providing bottled water during afternoon routes for as long as temperatures remain extremely hot.

Thank you for your understanding and, most importantly, for the trust you place in us each day. The safety and well-being of your children are extremely important to us. We will continue doing everything we reasonably can to keep them safe, hydrated, and comfortable while they are in our care.

Thank you for your continued partnership and trust in the South Conway County School District.
