📢 Reminder, just a few days away: Student-Led Conferences 📢
Monday, March 2nd | 4:00-6:00 PM 📍 Cape Fear Middle School
This is NOT a typical parent-teacher conference. Your student will lead the meeting, presenting their portfolio of work directly to you and their teachers. They will discuss their academic progress, strengths, challenges, and semester goals.
We'll see you there!

Huge shoutout to our sponsor, Mr. Odom, for making this possible! Our Grizzlies got up early, Saturday, February 21st and headed to Union Pines High School for their second ever Drone Competition — and they showed up!
Despite having to rewrite their entire drone code from scratch on the fly (talk about pressure!), our Grizzlies still came in 4th overall in the finals with their Alliance partner and 6th place overall.
That's a major jump from their last competition, and they're just getting started. March can't come soon enough! 🔥
