📣✨ October is National Principals Month! ✨📣

All month long, we’ll be celebrating the incredible principals of Pender County Schools by sharing short video spotlights. 🎥

From what inspired them to lead, to their favorite memories from school, to the advice they’d give their younger selves — you’ll get a chance to see the heart, humor, and humanity behind the title “Principal.” 💙💛

Stay tuned throughout October as we feature principals from across our district. We can’t wait for you to hear their stories and get to know them even better! YouTube - https://youtube.com/shorts/cCcvXUTIjxQ?feature=share

Students had a fun twist to their math problem sets in Mrs. Collins' math class. Students worked on teams to complete questions. Teams that got the answer correct got to come up to the bag of money to see how much their team won.
