Hello Parents/Guardians, I want to personally thank all the families who have already participated in our Reading for Education fundraiser! We are on our way to reaching our goal, but we need everyone's help to get innovative technology tools and books to help our students succeed. If your family has not participated, there's still time! Book Buddies will be available for new participants until 11/14/24. Your child will receive a prize just for participating. Students can earn prizes if people have purchased anything from the RFE site. These make great gifts! This part of the fundraiser will be open for the rest of this school year! This safe and easy fundraiser is 100% online so there is no face-to-face selling, collecting money, or delivering products. More prizes will be awarded when goals are reached. Go to https://www.rfe.net/sid.t?0000168123 to show our valued teachers your support. Thanks, Kelly Nolan Four Oaks Elementary School P.S. Family participation is the key to our success, and we are counting on you!

JCPS communities came together in an extraordinary way for our neighbors in Western North Carolina! 🌟 Donations from our schools for the Hurricane Helene Relief filled three dump trailers, three 3 box trucks, two pickup trucks, and two vans! This outpouring of kindness, compassion, and generosity is what our school system is built upon. We thank everyone involved in this effort! We continue to keep everyone affected by this devastating event in our hearts! ❤

Thousands of supplies. Hundreds of donors. One common goal…helping those in their time of need. ❤ Today our Facility Services team gathered supplies from our schools, which were Hurricane Helene Relief donation sites. In a few hours, these supplies will be transported to Western North Carolina. Thank you to the many, many students, parents, and staff who have responded promptly and compassionately. Also, a special thanks to Johnston County Government and the Johnston County Sheriff's Office for allowing us to partner with you in this effort. 🤝

As we provide critical assistance to our neighbors in Western North Carolina, here's a reminder of our district's partnership with Johnston County Government's Hurricane Helene Relief Effort. The region is in dire need of new, unused blankets. As you continue supporting the relief efforts, place these at the top of the list. Thank you!
