Parents, we have noticed an increased number of parents dropping their kids off in the high school bus lot in the mornings. Please remember, you must use the car rider line. The only families permitted to walk their children down from the bus lot are THS staff members. Thank you for following our morning drop-off procedures.
From January 31-February 11th Topsail Elementary will be hosting a "super bowl" canned food drive to support Share the Table food pantry! Students will place their food items in the front lobby under the team they think will win the Super Bowl. Please send students with non-perishable items such as soups, canned fruits and vegetables, crackers, condiments, and more!
We have an exciting project we're working on and we need your help! Please help us expand our diverse book collection in our classrooms. We love teaching our students about other cultures. All donations will be matched, so if you're able, now is the time to donate! It's easy, just click here: Creating Culturally Responsive Classrooms Through Literature.

Thank you to everyone who donated towards classroom raffle baskets and silent auction items. They are amazing!!! Raffle ticket sales continue through this week!
