In October, Pender County celebrates their "Month of Awareness," and we begin this week with Mental Health Awareness Week. Did you know? Our students participate in weekly social-emotional learning lessons both in their classrooms and with our counselor, Ms. Sherwood. These lessons help our students learn a variety of skills from how to regulate their emotions to how to deal with conflicts with peers. Wear green this week to help us bring awareness to the importance of Mental Health! #OnePender

🎵 ARTS IN EDUCATION WEEK 🎵

For many students, elementary school is where a lifelong connection to music begins. 🎶🥁🎻

As we continue celebrating Arts in Education Week, hear from Ms. Laura Black, Music Teacher at Rocky Point Elementary School, as she shares why arts education matters and what music can bring to a student’s educational experience. 💙💛

Through music, students have opportunities to create, perform, work together and build confidence — skills that reach far beyond the music room. 🎼✨
