Students should use LOTS of color, try to incorporate our school mascot or Ram Pledge (Responsibility, Achievement, Manners, Safety), and put their name on the BACK of the paper. Entries will be judged anonymously on October 26th, and the winner will be announced the week of October 29th. Good luck to all of our artists!

We've got another one! Ms. Jacobus' class reached their goal to have more than 80% of their families connected on "Rooms," the PCS platform used to communicate between teachers and families. If you're not yet connected on "Rooms," reach out to your student's teacher for their Magic Code! #OnePender

Each classroom is striving to get at least 80% of their families connected to school on the "Rooms" app (located within the Pender County Schools app). Ms. Bassano's and Ms. Leonard's class were among the first classrooms to reach their goal - great work! If you're not yet connected in "Rooms," please reach out to your student's teacher to get the 'Magic Code' and connect today! #OnePender
