TAES celebrates Read Across America on March 2nd and 3rd with an optional activity. On Thursday, wear something that represents a place in the US that you have visited or wear your best tourist outfit. On Friday rest up from your "travels" by wearing your PJs.



REASSIGNMENT - The beginning of March also marks the start of the reassignment application period which runs through the end of the month 📆. The application for reassignment can be found at https://penderncc.scriborder.com/



Don't forget Friday 2/ 24 is the rain date for our Glow Bash. See you there! The book fair will be open from 4:30 to 6:30 as well!

If you have not yet registered your child for the club (which meets after school on the 3rd Friday of each month), please go to: http://operationmilitarykidsclubs.com.

A Message from Pender County Schools
Hello TAES & TMS Families,
We are in desperate need of sub bus drivers. When drivers are out for various reasons, we do not have anyone who can drive for them. Due to the shortage, we have to run additional double routes as well as some triple routes to cover buses. If you know of anyone willing to drive a bus daily or from time to time, please email mary_seigler@pender.k12.nc.us
If, by chance, we find a sub driver who can run the routes on time, we will update families via email only. We will not send a phone call message, so please monitor email for updates to route 229.
2/16 Bus 229 (formerly 281) 1st route am will run about 1 hour late in the morning. Students will be picked up by bus 218.
