Hailey, Audrina, and Harper competed in the North Carolina State Science Fair at NC State in Raleigh today. They won a Special Award called the Promising Young Researcher Award. We are so proud of your hard work. You all represented Pender County Schools and Surf City Elementary so well! Way to go!!

We're happy to share with you that Nik L. from Mrs. Holt's 2nd grade class is our Sea Turtle of the Week for the week of March 24-28. Nik, your school is proud of you. 💙🐢💚
WOW! What a special night for our Student Showcase. Our kids, teachers and families are fantastic. The energy in the building was high as students led their families around and talked them through all the learning that they're doing each and every day. 💙🐢💚
Good afternoon Surf City Families,
We were just made aware that Bus 240, both first and second runs, will be approximately 30-45 minutes late this afternoon. We apologized for the late notice and the inconvenience.
Thank you for your continued support for Surf City Schools.
Congratulations to our 2024-2025 Teacher of the Year, Mrs. Faircloth! We could not be more proud of her and all that she does for all of our students and our school each and every day! 🌟

Try to find Mr. Rich sitting still, you will have a VERY hard time. He is constantly on the move looking for ways to make our school as clean as possible. Not only is our school more clean thanks to his efforts, but he also sets a great example of work ethic and taking care of the things we are trusted with.
After reading The Very Busy Spider, Ms. Meadows and Ms. Bryant's PreK class drew a bug using the characteristics of an insect and measured how many cubes tall their bug is. As a whole group they made a huge spider web using yarn and worked together as a team to build it strong enough for the plastic spider. 🕷
Check out Mrs. Rice's 4th graders 👀 Students are reading and analyzing popular Greek and Roman myths to discover what the myths explained, and how they relate to us today. After reading and discussing their myths, they created a group poster showing what they discovered. ✨
📚🌟 Student Showcase 🌟📚 We hope to see everyone at school Thursday evening for our Student Showcase/Curriculum Night.

Every year on March 21, we join people around the world in celebrating the amazing individuals with Down Syndrome. Today we wore brightly colored and mismatched socks to raise awareness and show our support. 🧦✨#WorldDownSyndromeDay
In Wit & Wisdom, 2nd grade is learning about the digestive system, so today Mrs. Allen’s class simulated digestion in a plastic bag. They made mucus to protect the “stomach” then added food (bread) and some “gastric juices” (orange juice, lemonade, or cola) and squeezed the bag to represent the contractions of the stomach muscles until the bread was mashed into chyme. Gross science for the win!
Mrs. Pierce's 1st first grade class has been working hard to collect their SURF points for good behavior. Today they were able to celebrate by bringing board games from home to play and wearing costumes. Keep up the great work!
Shout out to these awesome teachers! Thank you to our SCE families for continuing to share great things about our staff! Do you have a positive story to share? Click the link! https://forms.gle/LfNJcYZo27onNDiP9
