Principal Update
Hello Conway Families,
Our students worked incredibly hard on their Student-Led Conferences this week! We are so grateful that our families could hear directly from our Cougars about their goals, progress, and next steps. We take immense pride in this work and in everything that empowers our students to become Leaders of Their Own Learning. A heartfelt thank-you to our dedicated staff, translators, students, and families for making this week so special! If you were unable to attend your child’s conference, please reach out to their teacher through Rooms. We deeply value our partnership with families and want to ensure every student has the opportunity to share their growth with you.
