Dear SCCSD Family, Note--PREK WILL DISMISS AT 1:55. Please follow the regular routine of entering through the PreK doors. K-12 students will dismiss following this announcement --Due to the ongoing power outage, we will dismiss all schools across the district today at 1:25 p.m. At this time, Morrilton High School, Morrilton Junior High School, and Morrilton Intermediate School are without power and without phone service. Because of these conditions, we believe a districtwide early dismissal is the best course of action. Please follow your normal early-dismissal procedures and help us make this transition as safe and orderly as possible for our students and families. Thank you for your flexibility, patience, and continued care for our students.

SCCSD Families, Due to the ongoing power outage, all K–12 students in the South Conway County School District will dismiss today at 1:25 p.m. Pre-K students will dismiss at 1:55 p.m. Morrilton High School, Morrilton Junior High School, and Morrilton Intermediate School are currently without power and phone service. Based on the information we have received, power is not expected to be restored until after 3:30 p.m.

Today, we pause to remember September 11, 2001. We honor the lives that were lost, the families who continue to carry that grief, and the courage of the first responders who ran toward danger in service of others. May we never forget the sacrifice, the bravery, and the unity our nation showed in the face of tragedy.
