This year's Pender County ROCAME team included members from PECHS, HTHS, PHS, BMS, Penderlea, TMS, and WPMS. Everyone worked so hard and brought home medals plus the big trophy as a county! The middle school and high school scores are added together, so it was a true team effort. We are so proud of our scientists, mathematicians, and engineers!
This week we are showcasing one of our graduating seniors, Kymberli Smith, who will be earning her A.A.S in Chemical Technology and hitting the workforce after she graduates.
