Our tremendous Osprey team is prepped and ready for school on Monday! We are blessed with the best. Thank you to all of the families who joined us for open house tonight. It was exciting to see all of our student's smiling faces. We can't wait to kick off a fantastic school year.
Thank you to our PTA for the phenomenal meal to fuel our teachers for open house. We can't thank you enough for your endless support for our staff!
✂️ Back-to-School Haircuts! ✂️
Cape Fear Community College is offering free haircuts this Saturday, August 24, from 9 a.m. - 2 p.m. at the Barber School located at 108 Walnut St.
No appointments needed—just walk in! All haircuts will be supervised by a licensed instructor and are first-come, first-served. Remember, students under 16 must be accompanied by an adult. Get ready for the new school year with a fresh look!
This year we have 1 new teacher to welcome to the Nest! Please welcome Ms. Schock, our newest 1st grade teacher. We are thrilled to welcome her to the Osprey family and are so excited for the tremendous impact she is going to have on our students.
Today was our official first day back with all staff. We were thrilled to be able to participate in Project ADAM and become a certified school. The certification process included staff working together and putting together an emergency response team and plan in case of a cardiac arrest episode. Safety and security is our top priority and this is just another way we can continue to keep all of our students safe and be prepared to respond in the case of any emergency event.
📣 Important Announcement 📣

Thank you for your understanding and support as we prepare for a great school year ahead! 🎓✨ #OnePender

As we get closer to the start of the school year, we recommend getting your apps ready! PCS uses the PCS app, which incorporates a parent communication app called Edurooms for our main source of parent communication. You will be able to sign up for your child's classroom to get important updates from their teacher, as well as direct messages to the teacher. We recommend having the app downloaded so you can add in the magic code at open house!
