I'm part of class 2011, there is one person that has improved our school a lot and thats Mr. Reeves, our new principal. He's made coming to school fun not a chore. I actually enjoy coming to school now.

I graduated from Conway High in '04, and I am very proud to claim so. We had small class sizes, one-on-one help from great teachers, and the small-town environment makes it a very safe and friendly place to learn. The best teacher there by far, would have to be Mrs. Susan Bailey, who teaches history. She has rules that are not broken, teaches students to take notes, keep track of our own things, and helps us learn in lots of fun ways. I really hate history, but I actually learned a lot in her classes, and not just about history.

About the tests


In 2011-2012 Missouri used the End-of-Course (EOC) Assessments to test high school students in Algebra I, Algebra II, Geometry, English I, English II, American History, Government, and Biology. The EOC Assessments are standards-based, which means they measure how well students are mastering specific skills defined by the state of Missouri for each subject. The goal is for all students to score at or above proficient on the test.
