Mrs. Johnson’s class has begun their Building Study! Through hands-on activities, students are exploring language, literacy, math, science, motor skills, social studies, and the arts. We are already having so much fun “building” and learning!

21st Century Community Learning Center students recently participated in their first nutritional visit with Pender County nutritionist, Mrs. Rivenbark. The engaging session focused on kitchen safety, healthy eating options, and the importance of making informed nutritional choices. Students also enjoyed a hands-on activity creating edible Play-Doh, which reinforced lessons in food safety, collaboration, and healthy food preparation in a fun and meaningful way.

What a way to send our students off before break! A 2nd quarter PBIS celebration paired with Ugly Sweater Day made for the perfect festive finish.






Congratulations to our December students of the month.

Mrs Robertson's class completed their ginger bread study but creating Gingerbread houses with families. They used all the skills learned over the last few weeks (identifying numbers, shapes, fine motor skills, following recipes, step by step process, problem solving with materials, and more!). Thank you to all the families who helped make this possible and all the help building. Such a great turnout.

Pajama Day was the perfect cozy way to keep the fun going! Tomorrow we wrap up our spirit week with Ugly Sweater Day — we can’t wait to see those festive sweaters



Mrs. Johnson class had wonderful experience with families and students creating gingerbread houses! We even had visits from our lovely principals! We hope everyone has a MERRY CHRISTMAS 🎁🎄

Ms. Grochan’s and Mrs. Snider’s 4th graders earned 50 PAW Prints, and today they celebrated with a visit from Rocky Point’s own powerlifting champion, Desmond Jordan!
He shared an inspiring message about being respectful and kind, believing in yourself, and never giving up. Our students left feeling motivated and proud!
Huge thanks to Desmond and congrats to our amazing 4th graders!
