Due to last week’s winter weather, the South Conway County School District missed five consecutive days of school, resulting in the loss of five valuable Tier 1 instructional days for our students. Because teaching and learning matter—and in alignment with our mission to maximize safety and learning, students will make up one of those snow days on Thursday, February 12.
Thursday, February 12th, will be a student learning day for grades PreK–12, following the regular school schedule.
Important details for Thursday, February 12:
• Student Learning Day (PreK–12)
• Regular school hours: 8:00 a.m. – 3:25 p.m.
• Parent-Teacher Conferences: 3:45 p.m. – 7:45 p.m.
By using February 12 as a learning day, the district will regain 6.3666 hours of instructional time, helping offset the loss of Tier 1 instructional time due to winter weather and ensuring students receive the learning opportunities they need to stay on track.
Additional reminders:
• Friday, February 13 – Winter Break (No School)
• Monday, February 16 – Presidents’ Day (No School)
We appreciate your understanding, flexibility, and partnership as we work together to support our students. Thank you for your continued commitment to learning and for supporting our efforts to make every instructional day count.

Clearing ice-covered roads in difficult and dangerous conditions is no small task, and your long hours and commitment help keep our community safer.
We are grateful for your service, your perseverance, and your willingness to step up when it matters most. Thank you for taking care of our community.
We appreciate you.
