Ms. Wither's PreK class had a fruit-tastic time working together to make a delicious fruit salad. They started by creating their own recipe as a group, discussing which fruits to include and how to prepare them. Then they practiced important skills like washing, cutting (with help) and safely handling the ingredients. Everyone had a chance to contribute, and the result was a colorful, tasty fruit salad that was enjoyed by all.
Happy Friday! Starting Oct. 1, our 3rd-5th graders will start using Accelerated Reader and K-5 students will also participate in the district's Million Minute Challenge. More information on that to come! Exciting things are in the near future for our READERS at Surf City Elementary!
Mrs. Edwards' first grade class earned enough SURF points for a pajama and stuffy day. Their points are being earned by being fantastic during Encore classes. Keep up the great work!
We're happy to share with you that Connor from Ms. Pierce's 1st grade class is our Sea Turtle of the Week. Connor, your school is proud of you. 💙🐢💚
🍎👮♂️ Lunch with the Law 👮♀️🍎 Thank you to our awesome SC Police Department for sitting down to lunch with our first graders. This community program gives the officers the chance to connect with students, answer their curious questions, and build positive relationships in a fun, relaxed setting. We’re grateful for the opportunity to show these young students that police officers are here to help, support, and keep them safe.
Ms. Polster's music class makes us happy! 🎶🥁

Ms. Stewart's 4th graders took a deep dive into poetry to launch their new book, Love That Dog. Students worked in groups to explore a variety of poetry books, discussed what they enjoyed about their book and showed their rating using sand dollars. Finally, students chose an object of their choice and wrote their very own poem!

Dear Surf City Families,
Please read this announcement from Pender County Transportation Department:
Dear Parents, Thank you for your ongoing patience as we refine our bus routes. To address the delays with bus 291, we've adjusted routes for buses 279, 280, 281, 287, 288, and 323.
Updated bus passes were sent to the school level administration Friday afternoon to provide the changes to your students. These updates will be reflected in the HCTB app within 24 hours.
Please allow time for Hwy 17 traffic, construction delays, etc as the routing software does not take these challenges into consideration when establishing route times.
We appreciate your understanding as we implement these changes.
From Surf City Elementary:
If your child was previously assigned to the morning route for Bus 291 and you did not receive a paper bus pass or an email about this change, please contact Leah_Smith@pender.k12.nc.us

Friday Fun! Mrs. Collin's 5th grade students played a math relay game working as a team to solve problems. They took turns to solve each piece of the problem. Then students partnered up to solve problems in a pixel art to reveal a mystery picture. What a fun way to prepare for a topic quiz!
Dive into our weekly news at Surf City Elementary! Thanks for an incredible week of learning!
Happy Friday, Sea Turtles!
We have an update for Bus 291. Contrary to a previous notification, the second run of Bus 291 will not be 15 minutes early today. Instead, the bus will now be leaving approximately 15 minutes later than its originally scheduled time.
Frequent changes are inconvenient for us all, and we appreciate your patience and understanding.
