Thank you for your patience as we learn our new Converse #1 app! Today at 8:00 AM we sent out a reminder about early release on Fridays. Unfortunately, the phone call displayed an incorrect number (from Little Rock, AR) instead of our Converse #1 phone number. We've corrected this issue and future calls will show the proper number. We also accidentally sent a duplicate message at 3:20 PM. If you did not receive the notifications, please contact your child's school. Thanks again for your understanding as we learn together!
