Wear orange this week to support bully prevention awareness!


💛 This week we wore yellow to show our support for Special Needs Awareness! 💛
Together, we celebrate inclusion, kindness, and the amazing individuals who make our community shine bright!

Friday, October 31st, will be CFE's PBIS Dress Up For Good Character Day! All are invited to dress as their favorite book character and bring their matching book along! (Please no fake weapons/blood or full face masks.) Can't wait to celebrate having good character with you!

Mrs. Hollifield’s class earned their popcorn party for perfect attendance! They’re over halfway to their next reward of a hat day!


The 21st CCLC program welcomed a visit from the Science Alliance of Eastern NC. During the session, students engaged with Newton’s Laws of Motion using toys! They performed an experiment on gravity and balance, experienced the effects of moving air molecules and static electricity as unseen forces, and learned about magnetism as a force capable of generating motion. They also experimented with spinning tops to illustrate the concepts of force and friction, before heading outside to apply Newton’s Third Law of Motion in a stomp rocket challenge.





Mrs Robertsons class is continuing their pumpkin study with measuring pumpkins, labeling the parts of the pumpkin through art, discussing the pumpkins characteristics, writing, and journaling our observations. They also took virtual field trip to a pumpkin patch where they added to their KWL chart on information they learned from the virtual trip.

Congratulations to Britney Rogers! She has been selected as PCS Mentor of the Month for October!

Today third graders had the chance to make connections to the text they studied in class, The Fantastic Undersea Life of Jacques Cousteau, by seeing real diving equipment up close! 🤿

Let’s support HTHS while having a frightfully good time!

The 21st CCLC program enjoyed a successful initial visit with Pender County 4-H, where students took part in an “all-about-me” activity that strengthened their presentation, speaking, and peer-questioning skills. Pender County 4-H serves elementary students through hands-on learning across subjects such as STEM, health, and agriculture. 🍀

✏️Third graders working together to give each other peer feedback on their writing. Students answered the prompt: Why & how do scientists explore the sea? 🤿 🐠 🌊


This week Mrs Robertson's class began their pumpkin study. This rainy and windy day has brought about a lot of indoor opportunities for us that included cutting open a pumpkin! We discussed the characteristics of a pumpkin, labeling the parts of a pumpkin, the life cycle, where they grow, what they need to grow, new vocabulary, practiced measuring the circumference of a pumpkin, using watercolors to paint the pumpkin and pumpkin parts. We also used play doh to create pumpkin numbers, built scarecrows in block center, made pumpkin pies (pretend) at our in house farmers market, and much much more!

Mrs. Johnson’s class has begun their pumpkin study and learning so much already! We created a K,W,L chart, a pumpkins “ have, are, can” chart, talked about the parts of a pumpkin and more today. We will be measuring pumpkins, conduct a what’s inside a pumpkin, sink or float & how heavy are pumpkins investigations to name a few. We will use pumpkins to build on many developmental skills like literacy, math, science , fine and gross motor skills.

Say Cheese! Don't forget your smiles. Tomorrow is picture day.
