we have lot of freedom at this school and I love it here and I never want to leave this school!!!!

I am the principal of Conway. While I do not believe in this site and other sites like this (they leave a major part of the story out of their rating systems), I feel compelled to place a comment here. This data is incredibly misleading and does not in anyway tell the true story of our overall data picture, the incredible strengths of our kiddos, and the amazing abilities of our teachers. We are fully accredited with VDOE and we continue to make progress each year. Sure we have things to work on and we always will. However, the ratings, data, enrollment numbers are significantly incorrect. It is my hope that if you are thinking about coming to Conway, please reach out to me, check out my YouTube channel, check out our website, or just talk to people in our community. I think you will see and hear a very different perspective than is being shared here.

This school has a terrible reputation of bullying and what is worse is that the staff does nothing to stop it. My child was bullied non-stop everyday for weeks and let his teachers and administrators know and nothing was done until one day he had enough and punched his bully repeatedly. It is only then that staff decided to step in and take appropriate action. My child was suspended and law enforcement was even called, He was mandated by the juvenile and domestic relations district court to take classes for his actions and had all of his classes changed and signed a restraining order to keep away from his bully. My son was emotionally distraught and did not want to return to that school. As a parent I do not condone violence however, these are children 11-14 years of age who do not have the restraint to not act on emotion and are still learning how to deal with difficult situations in life. Unfortunately in this case there were 2 victims, my son and his bully. Needless to say my child has not been bullied since but this could have been prevented if appropriate action had been taken since the first complaint. Ever since the incident my child is now on "the radar" and is closely watched, I hope his bully learned from this as well. Parents, please teach your children to be kind and staff, listen when our children need you to advocate for them!
