Conway High School has consistently ranked among the top high schools in Arkansas, with a statewide ranking between 18 and 111 over the past 10 years.

For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, 35.8% of Conway High School students were proficient or better in ATLAS/English Language Arts, compared to the state average of 34.7%. Additionally, the school has a relatively low student-teacher ratio, ranging from 16.3 to 16.8 over the past 3 years, which is lower than the state average and some of the nearby schools.

While Conway High School performs well overall, some of the nearby schools, such as Maumelle Charter High School and Vilonia High School, also demonstrate strong academic performance, with higher proficiency rates in certain subject areas. Additionally, the free and reduced lunch rates at some of the nearby schools, such as Morrilton Senior High School and Guy-Perkins High School, are significantly higher than Conway High School, indicating a higher concentration of students from low-income families. However, Conway High School is able to achieve its strong academic performance with relatively lower per-student spending compared to some of its neighbors.
