Mr. Kevin McSwain is an EC teacher at HTHS and is in his second year of teaching. Staff shared that he is consistently available when students need support and does a strong job connecting with both students and families.
What stands out most about Mr. McSwain is the relationships he builds. He takes time to earn trust and helps students feel comfortable asking for help. He also communicates well with families and works with them as partners.
One example shared in his nomination involved students who have struggled to connect with some adults at school. Mr. McSwain has been able to build trusting relationships with those students and support them through learning challenges as well as personal difficulties they may be facing.
Thank you, Mr. McSwain, for the steady support you provide to students and families at HTHS. 💛

Five PCS schools with band programs participated in MPA, and the results reflect a lot of time, practice, and commitment from both students and staff.
🎶 Cape Fear Middle School Band — first time attending in 7 years
🎶 Topsail Middle School Band — Excellent
🎶 Surf City Middle School Band — Excellent
🎶 Heide Trask High School Symphonic Band — Superior
🎶 Topsail High School Symphonic Band — Superior
🎶 Topsail High School Wind Ensemble — Superior
For those unfamiliar with MPA, the ratings are given to the performing group and are similar to academic scoring:
⭐ Superior = A / 5
⭐ Excellent = B / 4
⭐ Average = C / 3
Thank you to our band directors for the work they are doing each day to support students and grow music programs across PCS. 🎺🥁🎼
Please also join us in celebrating Luke Germain, Jaxsen Roark, and Miguel Manzano‑Mijangos for being selected to perform with the 2025 UNC Pembroke Honor Band this past Saturday, May 21st. Representatives from 45 high school band programs across North Carolina took part — their concert was amazing!
A big congratulations to the students from Cape Fear Middle, Surf City Middle, Heide Trask High, Pender High, and Topsail High who participated in Honor Band at UNC Pembroke this past weekend.
Students from across the state performed on Saturday at the Givens Performing Arts Center after spending just one day working with guest clinicians to prepare the concert. That is no small task, and our students did an outstanding job. We are proud to see them recognized for their talent and commitment.
When Titantown answers the call — hearts and books lead the way. 💙✨
Ivey Clodfelter showed calm, competence, and compassion during a medical emergency last week — stepping up not for praise but because it mattered. 🙏👩⚕️
