Today, all PCS teachers are gathered at HTHS for our annual professional development conference - Rocky Point teachers are getting ready for a day of learning!
Rocky Point Elementary School Families,
This message is for families of 1st through 5th graders, excluding new enrollments. As Pender County Schools has stated, all students will require a Chromebook Agreement in order to receive a Chromebook from school. The Chromebook Agreement is embedded in the Beginning of Year Application on Scribbles. Families completing this B.O.Y. application is extremely important for our records. It allows us to receive valuable updated information, for example, transportation, guardian phone number/address changes and emergency contact information. Our hopes are to have this completed before Open House so you can focus on the meet and greet with your child and teacher. Please take the time to submit the application online as soon as possible. The link is listed below.

**If you have a change of address, please note that a new Proof of Residence must be on file in order to have bus changes completed or for the student information system to be updated.
We would also like to remind you that all students will receive free breakfast and lunch for the school year 2023-2024.
Please feel free to reach out with any questions you may have.
