Mr. Strong's classes visited the media center today to launch their exciting Presidents Research Project!
Students will be diving deep into history as they select a U.S. president to research and analyze. The focus? Understanding how their chosen president's domestic and foreign policies shaped both America and the world.
The final product: A formal five-paragraph research paper complete with MLA citations. 📝
Today's session equipped students with valuable research skills, exploring both print resources and online databases available for their projects. Our media center is ready to support these young historians every step of the way!
We can't wait to see which presidents our students choose and what insights they discover!
Go Grizzlies! 🐻

Ms. Sutton has been serving as a school psychologist for eight years, including four years in PCS.
She says her favorite part of the job is “I truly cherish and value the relationships that I have developed with so many different staff and students.”.
Outside of school, Ms. Sutton enjoys spending as much time as she can with her one-year-old son. She is also the captain of a pool team with the American Pool Players Association and she enjoys playing disc golf - a great reminder that balance and self-care matter for everyone!
Thank you, Ms. Sutton, for the compassion and positivity you bring to our students and staff every day! 🌟

On Friday, October 31st, our students attended the 1st Annual Healthcare Awareness Day at Burgaw Middle School, hosted by Pender County in partnership with UNC–Chapel Hill Health.
Our students gained hands-on experience with life-saving skills including:
✨ CPR techniques
✨ The Heimlich maneuver
✨ How to find their pulse
✨ Techniques for stopping bleeding from deep wounds
A special thank you to the high school students who served as instructors and to UNC–Chapel Hill Health for making this valuable healthcare awareness event possible! These are skills that could truly save lives.
We're so proud of our 6th graders for being eager learners and taking their health education seriously! 💙
