📚🍟 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! 🙌

🚌 School Buses Are Back on the Road! 🚸
With the first day of school coming up on Monday, our buses will be back on the road, transporting more than 6,000 students safely each day. Our dedicated drivers travel over 8,500 miles daily, navigating all types of weather and road conditions to ensure every child arrives at school ready to learn. Their commitment to safety and care is the backbone of our transportation system.
It takes a special kind of person to be a school bus driver, and we are fortunate to have such dedicated individuals in Pender County Schools. For example, Teresa Coston, a driver for South Topsail Elementary, began driving a bus when she was just 17 years old and continues to serve our community today. Alongside her role as a kindergarten teacher assistant, Ms. Coston, like many of our drivers, is deeply committed to the well-being and success of our students.
As we start the new school year, let's all stay alert and patient on the roads, especially during school bus stops. Remember to follow all traffic laws related to school buses and give them the space they need to operate safely. Together, we can ensure a safe and successful start to the school year for all our students and staff! 🚍💛 #OnePender
🏈 Friday Night Lights Are Back! 🏈
We're excited to kick off the high school football season tonight with all three of our varsity teams—Heide Trask, Pender, and Topsail—playing at home! 🎉 Come out and support our student-athletes as they give it their all on the field!
Reminder: New this year, metal detectors will be in place at all high school football and basketball games to help ensure a safe and enjoyable experience for everyone. Your cooperation is greatly appreciated!
Let's have a great season, #OnePender! 🏆
