Supporting the West - Pender EMS and Fire are collecting donations to be delivered to our neighbors in Western NC who have suffered from the kind of historic flooding that we know all too well. They are making a delivery this Wednesday. Just as the state mobilized to help us six years ago, we want to mobilize to help now. We are collecting water, nonperishable food items, personal hygiene items, and cleaning supplies on Monday and Tuesday of this week and these items will be delivered to the Pender County EMS and Fire on Tuesday afternoon.
We will also collect these items at our THS Athletics events this week to be delivered to our friends in Western North Carolina. #NCSTRONG

Happy National Principals Month - Dr. Sasscer! We appreciate your passion for our students, support of our staff, and leadership at The Ship!
