Conway Elementary School - Ladue School District

Conway Elementary School is part of the nationally acclaimed Ladue School District. Nestled in a small suburban neighborhood within the St. Louis, Missouri metropolitan area, Conway School is a place where children thrive. Serving 347 students, Conway is a close-knit, supportive and safe community. The student population is ethnically, socio-economically, and academically diverse. The philosophy at Conway is to meet each student where they are and partner in moving them forward. Through differentiated instruction, all students are able to achieve their full potential. Curriculum is centered around the whole child, focusing on academic, intellectual, social, emotional, and physical health.

Students also receive a strong foundation in character development using a growth mindset approach to problem solving in order to overcome challenges. Conway students understand that mistakes are a necessary part of the learning process. The school-wide philosophy for student behavior expectations is taught in every aspect of the Conway community through The Conway Promises: Be Kind, Be Responsible, Be Respectful, Be Positive, and Be Safe.

Conway's parent association is a vital component of the school's success and provides great support for students and staff. In 2016, a sensory room was funded by the parent association to provide an innovative space for students to interact, move, and learn.

Conway Elementary School is a 2007 National Blue Ribbon School, has been awarded two Gold Stars from the Missouri Department of Elementary and Secondary Education (2003 and 2007) and was named an Apple Distinguished School in 2017.
