CONWAY — School officials are hoping they've reached the peak in post-holiday COVID-19 cases and still believe face-to-face instruction is better educational tool than going to fully remote learning.

Superintendent Kevin Richard said that since the first positive case was reported at Kennett High on Oct. 8, there have been 58 cases of the virus in SAU 9. But the district has seen a spike in post-holiday COVID cases, with 21 current cases in the seven schools in the SAU.
