I am in 6th grade at Hackett Elementary School and I would love to attend Conwell next year.

I am glad to see that Conwell is continuing to hold students to an academic and social standard that helps with the real world. I graduated in 1988 and not a year goes by that I don't think of the experiences Conwell afforded me. Their teachers were top notch and very caring. They challenged me and always gave praise and recognition to students who excelled. I am glad for the diversity of the staff and students. It was exposure to other cultures that has allowed me to be a professional today.The availability of extracurricular activities allowed everyone to be popular in areas of music, art, theater and dance. It was the best! And from what I have read it still stands out from the rest! God Bless Conwell Midmagnets school, faculty, and all alumni!
