Did you know that we switched to a new teacher communication system? Download the Pender County Schools app to get started today with "Rooms." You will need a "Magic Code" specific to your student, which you should have received at Open House. If you have any trouble or need a new Magic Code, please reach out to your student's teacher!
Did You Know? Our Rocky Point Staff Shines Bright!
This week, we're highlighting our new assistant principal, Mrs. Bethanie Cramer! Mrs. Cramer has been in education for over 20 years, and has been a part of our Rocky Point family since 2022. Her favorite flower is Black-Eyed Susans (she has 10 in her yard!) and her favorite book is "The Things We Leave Unfinished." Mrs. Cramer said, "I am so excited and honored to be serving the families of Rocky Point." - and we're excited, too! Welcome to your new role, Mrs. Cramer!
(If you see her this week, wish her a belated Happy Birthday - her birthday was August 25th!)

📚🍟 Fries for School Supplies is Back! 🍟📚
We are excited to announce that for the second year in a row, our local McDonald’s owner-operators are hosting the Fries for School Supplies fundraiser in our school district!
Last year, over $110,000 was raised for our area schools, and we’re aiming to do even more this year! 🎉
From August 26th to 30th, McDonald’s will donate 10% of sales from all a la carte Fries to help support our schools. It’s a delicious way to contribute to our community! 🙌
