CONWAY — On the heels of a petition signed by over half of Kennett High School's student body, submitted Monday to the Conway School Board and asking that student spectators be allowed to attend home basketball and hockey games, the doors will open to up to 50 seniors beginning this Saturday.

The board’s co-curricular advisory subcommittee (Kevin Carpenter, Superintendent Kevin Richard, Kennett High Athletic Director Neal Weaver, Kennett Middle School Principal Rick Biche, Kennett Middle Athletic Coordinator Gredel Shaw and board members Michelle Capozzoli and Randy Davison) agreed Thursday it’s time to let students back into the stands.
