What a wonderful first day of the 2026–2027 school year across the South Conway County School District!
From our youngest learners to our high school scholars, students across SCCSD returned to classrooms filled with meaningful learning, positive connections, and opportunities to grow. Throughout our campuses, teachers and staff welcomed students with engaging lessons, encouragement, and the high expectations that help every scholar succeed.
We are delighted to have our students back and excited for all that this new school year will bring!

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.

Morrilton High School students represented our learning community during the opening of the 2026 Binational Education Week at the Consulate of Mexico in Little Rock.
MHS students shared information about the Spanish Club/LSA and the educational, cultural, and leadership opportunities available at Morrilton High School. They also joined Avanza Arkansas, the Central Arkansas Library System, Mamás Unidas, and other community partners in promoting access to educational resources and opportunities. This learning opportunity is a Devil Dog example of service and community engagement.

The SCCSD is grateful to the Morrilton Area Chamber of Commerce and its members and our generous community partners for providing meals and encouragement to our faculty and staff this week.
Special thanks to Horace Mann, American Fidelity, the SCCSD Board of Education, Progressive Technologies, Nabholz Construction, Centennial Bank, and the Morrilton Area Chamber of Commerce and its many sponsors for believing in our educators, supporting our schools, and helping us begin the year with encouragement and purpose.






Ms. Calhoun faithfully served our district for many years as a reading interventionist, serving children at multiple schools, including **East Side Elementary in Menifee** and **Reynolds Elementary School**. She also served as a counselor at Reynolds Elementary. In addition, she was instrumental in helping establish kindergarten in our district during the 1970s, leaving a lasting impact on countless young learners and helping shape the foundation of education for children in our community.
Throughout her career, Ms. Calhoun truly embodied our district's purpose to **Love, Serve, and Care for People**. Whether encouraging a struggling reader, comforting a child, supporting a family, or mentoring a colleague, she demonstrated compassion, kindness, and an unwavering commitment to others every single day.
We extend our deepest sympathies and prayers to her family, especially her daughters, Lynn and Leeann, during this difficult time. We also pray for the many former students, families, friends, and coworkers whose lives were blessed by knowing her.
The influence of a great educator lives on in the lives they shape. Ms. Judy Calhoun's legacy will continue to be seen in the generations of children she loved, served, and inspired. She will be deeply missed, but her example of loving, serving, and caring for people will continue to inspire all who had the privilege of knowing her.
Please join us in keeping her family in your thoughts and prayers.
