Conway High Schools has seen fluctuations in its statewide ranking, ranging from 195th out of 367 Missouri high schools in 2024-2025 (2-star rating) to 136th out of 378 in 2023-2024 (3-star rating), suggesting inconsistent performance compared to other high schools in the state. However, the school appears to be performing better for its low-income student population, ranking 98th out of 279 Missouri high schools in 2024-2025 with a 3-star rating. The school's 4-year graduation rate of 84.4% in 2023-2024 is lower than the state average, and its dropout rate has fluctuated between 1.9% and 2.4% in recent years, which is higher than the state average.

While Conway High Schools' overall test scores are below the state averages, the school has shown some strengths in specific subject areas, such as higher proficiency rates in Biology I and 7th grade Mathematics compared to the state. The school also faces socioeconomic challenges, with a relatively high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 49.74% to 55.21% in recent years. Addressing these challenges could be a key focus for the school and district to improve educational outcomes for all students.
