Talk:Conway School District (Arkansas)

Way forward

I see no benefit in creating a series of one-liners on each school. My suggested way forward is:

• Set a redirect for each school to here.
• Add information on the individual schools, creating headings as required.
• If there is so much information on a particular school that it unbalances the article then break the school out.

Having many negligible articles makes it hard to navigate and unhelpful to the reader who clicks a link only to find no new information. Much better to have it all in one place at the moment. TerriersFan 04:54, 15 November 2006 (UTC)

Categories

I don't see the benefit in having this article in the Faulkner County category and the Conway, Arkansas category. The city category is a subcategory of the county category. Little Rock School District is not in the Pulaski County category. -- Ben (talk) 16:49, 15 January 2007 (UTC)

Swednaneb, are the district's boundaries confined to the city? Or do they extend beyond the city, as I suspect is the case with many Arkansas school districts? WhisperToMe 17:02, 15 January 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for the response. I'm not sure. I'm looking around a little bit. Even if they did, I don't think that's reason enough to include it in the Faulkner County category. If you take a look at the Faulkner County, Arkansas category, you will see that it's all cities. Except for the entry for Conway Public Schools. It sticks out. -- Ben (talk) 17:17, 15 January 2007 (UTC)

There are some parts of many U.S. counties that are not within any city - those parts are called "unincorporated areas" - Faulkner County has many areas not a part of any town or city that are served by the school districts. See http://maps.google.com/ and enter Conway, Arkansas - notice how many parts of the county are not organized into any city. WhisperToMe 17:46, 15 January 2007 (UTC)

I am still not convinced it belongs. I think it's an eyesore. But I'm not going to change it. I'm sure there are lots of school districts in lots of county categories. This is the only one I have seen. But then again, I've only looked through two thirds of the Arkansas county categories. -- Ben (talk) 18:49, 15 January 2007 (UTC)

Picture

Do we really need that picture with the CG Wampus Cat? -- Swerdnaneb 20:29, 24 June 2008 (UTC) I don't think so but oh well... —Preceding unsigned comment added by 96.31.215.253 (talk) 01:52, 16 October 2010 (UTC)

2022 - 2023 School Board Controversies

I've added a paragraph to this article on the school board controversies of 2022-2023, reported on by ProPublica and others. This topic probably deserves its own section with more description and connection to other topics around conservative school board movements in the United States. 2600:1700:7B66:200:50E7:DDC5:1B98:9E4A (talk) 15:10, 16 May 2023 (UTC)
