CONWAY — If Conway shutters one of its elementary schools and relocates its sixth-graders to Kennett Middle School in the fall of 2025 or sooner, Madison will not be sending its sixth-grade students to the middle school.

School officials sent a letter to the Conway School Board last month, stating that Madison’s sixth-graders will remain at Madison Elementary School for the foreseeable future.
