CONWAY — The Conway School Board recognized 11 retirees at the beginning of its meeting in the Seidenstuecker Gymnasium on June 13, and for those on hand, it was a special moment. The group represented a combined 229 years of service to the Conway School District.
“These are difference-makers,” Superintendent Kevin Richard said.
