Aviso Importante para los Negocios Locales
Hemos sido informados de una estafa relacionada con una empresa llamada Elite Sports Promo (https://www.elitesportspromos.com/) que está afirmando falsamente representar a Pender High School y a las Escuelas del Condado de Pender mientras solicita fondos de patrocinio. Según informes de otros distritos, varios negocios ya han sido engañados.
Para aclarar, ninguna escuela del Condado de Pender trabaja con empresas externas de mercadeo para conseguir patrocinios. Las únicas organizaciones autorizadas a recaudar fondos para nuestros programas deportivos son los Booster Clubs (clubes de apoyo).
Si su negocio es contactado por alguien que dice representar a nuestras escuelas para fines de publicidad o patrocinio, le recomendamos verificar su identidad y comunicarse directamente con la escuela.

Our back playground is changing! The students will be so thrilled when they return to school. The sod is going down so no more sand blowing in their faces, no more tracking dirt and sand inside the building....and a Gaga-ball floor! Thank you to our awesome PTA and these hard working men for making it happen!

Celebrating these lovely ladies today as they move onto a new chapter of retirement. We're going to miss you Mrs. Rice, Mrs. Seferyn & Mrs Mitchell. Once a Sea Turtle, always a Sea Turtle. 💙🐢💚





Thank you for your patience.
