Surf City Elementary

Our staff came ready to sip in style and wrapped up their underground spirit week with one of the most hilarious themes yet.... can you guess? 😂☕️

Congratulations to Ms. Meadows for representing SCES last night at the Jones Onslow Bright Ideas banquet. Her grant money is going to be used for literacy materials in her PreK classroom. 🎉

Mrs. Wilson’s 5th grade class earned 20 surfboard points for their awesome choices during the school day, so they're celebrating Polar Express style! 🚂👨‍✈️🎟️

We're happy to share with you that Sura from Ms. Holt's 2nd grade class is our Sea Turtle of the Week. Sura, your school is proud of you. 💙🐢💚

You never know what this undercover spirit crew will come up with next… but we’re here for every bit of the holiday hilarity! 😄❄️ Can you guess today's theme? 🤔 Stay tuned tomorrow for the final day of fun!✨

Good Afternoon Sea Turtles.
Bus 281 will be on bus 290 today. This route will be running 15-30 minutes ahead of schedule.
Thank you!

Underground Spirit Week continues. We might be undercover, but our style sure isn’t. 😎 Can you guess today's theme?

Mark your calendars! 🗓️ Get ready to celebrate the season with fun and festive spirit days next week. Each day is a chance for students and staff to show their school pride and spread a little holiday cheer. ✨🎄 We can’t wait to see all the creativity and holiday joy around our school! 💙🐢

We are shouting CONGRATULATIONS to Alice Kaemmer. Alice is a first grader in Mrs. Pierce's class. Her artwork was selected for Pender County's Superintendent's Christmas Card. She was recognized at the School Board Meeting last night. I are so proud of you Alice!

Brrrrr... It is cold outside.
As the weather continues to change, please make sure your child comes to school with appropriate outdoor clothing. We go outside daily for recess when weather permits and having items like a warm coat, hat, gloves, and proper footwear helps keep students comfortable and ready to learn and play.

Thank you for helping us ensure all students are prepared for outdoor activities! ☀️🧤🧥🌧️

Shhhh...don't tell the kids, but our teachers and staff are having some fun with an Underground Spirit Week! Can you guess today's theme?

🎶🔔 Our 2nd graders are ringing in the season—literally! 🔔🎶

In music class this week, 2nd grade students are using handbells to play some favorite Christmas carols. With teamwork, careful listening, and tons of holiday spirit, they turned simple notes into magical melodies!

Our teachers are having a little fun of their own this December! 👀 🖤 Stay tuned… who knows what spirited surprises they’ll pop up with next! 😉🎄

A BIG thanks to Ms. Davidson, our Instructional Technology Specialist, who taught all 2nd grade classes how to create a digital book and all the skills that go along with it. Students will use these skills to create a Johnny Appleseed book during their upcoming Wit & Wisdom unit.
