CONWAY — Kennett High pulled off its largest event on the campus in more than 14 months when the annual Academic Awards were held in Gary Millen Stadium on May 17. Students were masked for the awards and families socially distanced, according to Superintendent Kevin Richard.

“I thought it was a really nice celebration of kids and their families,” Richard said Wednesday. “We had a good crowd, probably between 150 to 200 people.”
