Giving

Throughout the last three decades God has been ever-present in all stages of our journey, resulting in a truly remarkable legacy that began in 1992. Now we are sensing the Lord’s leaning to take another bold step forward, a mission driven step forward to serve our community in a mighty way for the present and for future generations.

Conway Christian’s Legacy Campaign is the next chapter in the history of Conway Christian School

The focus of this new campaign is rooted in the increasing demand for Christian, Jesus-Focused, College Preparatory education in our city for present and future generations. As the world has shifted socially, politically and spiritually more and more Christian families are looking to partner with a school that shares their values in regard to biblical worldview formation and education priorities. We are that school in Faulkner County and beyond.

For us to be best equipped for the future we must take a strategic, careful, and well-reasoned step of faith in order to meet enrollment demand for the short and long term. The Legacy Campaign will allow CCS to partner with more mission minded families, improve our current physical plant, acquire more land for future growth and better compensate our current and future faculty/staff as they continue to provide missional excellence.

The Legacy Campaign represents an exciting opportunity for all of us to come together in faith to ensure Conway Christian is increasingly accomplished in partnering with our current and new mission fit families to nurture their children’s minds, hearts and spirit for many generations to come.

Let’s build on our Legacy together!

Exciting News!

The school has been blessed with $8 million dollars in gifts and pledges from an anonymous donor to help propel this project forward! We have also received a donation allowing us to purchase 12 acres adjacent to the school (west side of German Lane) for future considerations. These remarkably generous gifts give us an opportunity to move forward with our plans. The challenge to our community is to raise another $2 million dollars between now and December 2026 to allow us to pay for these projects with a majority of cash and borrow as little as possible. If we are able to hit our goal it will make this campaign an exceptional success, positioning us for long-term success impacting children for generations. We believe we are up to the challenge, to leave a LEGACY for generations to come!

Legacy Campaign Projects

This campaign has two primary areas of focus. First, we are expanding our facilities to accommodate growth and provide areas for greater levels of student engagement. Secondly, we are then utilizing enrollment growth and statewide opportunities for tuition assistance to compensate our faculty and staff. The specific areas of focus are:

• A new elementary playground located on the west side of campus featuring artificial turf, new play equipment, courts for games (scheduled to be completed by the 2025-26 school year).
• A new 35,000 sq ft facility three story addition featuring JH/HS classrooms, science lab, innovation/meeting spaces, athletic center and a new cafeteria for all students that will double as a fortified safe room for students (scheduled to be open for the start of the 2026-27 school year).
• Renovations to the south end of our gymnasium to make it a more usable space (scheduled to be completed during 2025-26 school year).
• Added fine arts equipment including additions to the auditorium stage area and more.
• Compensation increases that provide for strong staff retention and better opportunities for attracting highly qualified faculty and staff.

Outcomes of the Legacy Campaign

Conway Christian has grown from 450 students, during the Covid year of 2020-21, to a total PK-12th grade enrollment of 695 students. We currently have waitlists in most of our PK-8th grades resulting in limited availability for future Christian families to join our community. Our plan is to address these realities through careful and thorough strategic growth.

Our focus is not centered on creating a “large” version of CCS. Instead, we are focused on “right-sizing” that allows us to provide God-honoring quality and excellence delivered daily by the faithfulness of well compensated faculty/staff preparing future leaders in our city and state.

Once completed, the Legacy Campaign and its corresponding projects, will provide space for up to 1000+ PK-12th grade students (average of approximately 70 per grade). We will do this while keeping our classroom sizes at their current levels, giving students the personal touch our families and students have enjoyed over the years at CCS. Our strategic planning, research and consulting has fortified this decision and will create the right size for Conway Christian on East German Lane.
