Good morning Topsail Families
With the end in sight, and exams approach we wanted to reach out to see if anyone is willing and available to help us proctor/monitor our exams. We definitely need the most help on Tuesday and Wednesday of next week May 20 and 21st.

To be a proctor or volunteer individuals must be 18 or older, not a current student, and must have completed the Pender County Schools background check process: https://appgarden2.app-garden.com/VolTrackNC710.nsf
