Good evening parents,
This is Mr. Parrish calling from Four Oaks Elementary. I am calling to invite you to the Curriculum Night event we are hosting Tuesday afternoon. Our floating event will last from 5:00-6:15. We will have ice cream in our cafeteria for all students and children who attend. Teachers will be sharing important curriculum information including our nightly homework routines, grade level promotion standards, and our schoolwide attendance letter. Tuesday night will also be an additional opportunity for any parent who needs to complete beginning of year forms.
Here is some important PTA News: The Fall Festival Raffle Ticket sales are in full swing. Please turn in any sold tickets that can be counted. You can also turn in any tickets that you are not planning on selling. Our PTA will have a table set-up Tuesday night. You can see them to request additional tickets, purchase spirit wear, and join the PTA.
We look forward to seeing you Tuesday afternoon. Thank you for all of the support you provide our school. Have a good evening!

Upcoming PTA Dates
Reminder only Kindergarten parents are walking students to class this week.
Good evening,
The second week of school has been great so far. Kindergarten student began this week. One half of our kindergarten students attended Tuesday and the other half attended today. Tomorrow, all kindergarten students will attend school. Please be prepared for delays with our carpool and bus dismissals. Your patience is appreciated. As we focus ensuring that all of our students find their cars and are placed on the correct bus, we may lose some of our efficiency. This is to be expected and our processes will become smoother as the days pass.
I would like to remind parents that we are offering free breakfast and lunch for all students this year.
Lastly, mark your calendars for September 19th. We will be hosting Curriculum night from 5:00-6:15. On this night, parents can expect to learn about homework routines, grade level promotion standards, and have an opportunity to complete beginning of year forms.
Thank you for all of the support you provide our school. Have a great evening!

Let’s make a masterpiece!
There is no school Monday. Monday is the Labor Day Holiday. We look forward to seeing all of our Cardinals on Tuesday!

JCPS CLOSED FOR ALL STUDENTS AND STAFF THURSDAY, AUGUST 31
Due to the impending inclement weather conditions caused by Hurricane Idalia, Johnston County Public Schools will be closed for all students, staff, and visitors tomorrow, Thursday, August 31. This includes all after school activities on Thursday. The district will operate under Condition 1 of our Inclement Weather Procedures. Weather Conditions can be found online by visiting www.johnston.k12.nc.us/weatherconditions.
This decision has been made out of an abundance of caution and per the guidance of local and state emergency service officials.
We hope that all of our students, staff, and families stay safe, and we thank you for your understanding and cooperation as we navigate this severe weather event.
All buses have left campus! They rolled about about 10 minutes ago. As a reminder, someone will be at school until all buses park.
Buses are arriving on campus sooner today. We will continue to provide updates.
We had a wonderful first day back to school and want to thank all of our students, staff, and families for working together to make today a success. We want to share a few reminders to keep things running smoothly in the days and weeks ahead.
In the first few weeks of school, it’s typical for our bus routes and carpool lanes to run a bit slower than normal. Our drivers are getting used to new routes, there are more drivers on the road, our students are getting into a routine, and most importantly - we are focused on keeping everyone safe at all times. We ask that you keep these things in mind if our arrival and departure procedures are moving more slowly than we anticipate. If your student is a bus rider, we encourage you to download the EduLog Parent Portal App, for real time information on where your student's bus is on their route.
We also want to remind our families that the majority of our schools are offering free breakfast and lunch this school year. All schools, with the exception of Clayton High, Cleveland Elementary, Cleveland High, Corinth Holders High, and Powhatan Elementary, will offer free breakfast and lunch through the Community Eligibility Provision. Families with students attending non-qualifying schools are encouraged to complete a Free and Reduced meal application to receive benefits for this school year. This form, which can be found on the district website, assists our schools in many other services throughout the year, and can be beneficial for our families and students.
Lastly, please be reminded that all of our school campuses now have a weapons detection system in place at the entrances of our school. All students, staff, and guests will be expected to pass through the system upon arrival to our campuses.
This first week of school is a busy time, with a lot of excitement for our students. Please be reminded that attendance will be taken daily. However attendance calls for students who are marked tardy or absent will not resume until next week.
We thank you in advance for your help in making this a great school year.
Thank you for your patience bus parents. We are hopeful that tomorrow the buses will arrive on campus earlier so they leave earlier. Please know that someone is always at school until all the buses run their routes each day.
