As we "rocket" off into summer, we wanted to share some of the art work of our fourth graders! Our art teacher, Mrs. Sills, brought her dog, Rocket, to visit a few weeks ago to provide a creative art experience. Artist Angela Alexander, based out of Asheville, North Carolina, has a unique artistic process. Before painting the images, she meets the animal to help her capture the essence and personality of each animal. To recreate this, our fourth graders met Rocket and have worked on creating their own paintings of him.

There was a showdown today between Sheriff Eli EOG and the rowdy outlaws! He had to set the record straight with them to make sure they are well prepared for their EOGs starting tomorrow! He also deputized our 3rd-5th graders who took an oath to be well rested, focused, and ready to take their time and use their strategies for their upcoming tests. Kindergarten, first and second graders lined the halls with cheers and encouragement and the North Johnston High School band met them in the gym to welcome our students to our annual EOG pep rally!
Our school would like to say a big THANK YOU for supporting our spring book fair! We were able to raise funds to help us purchase new and exciting books and materials to help support our school library program!
Did you know that graduation rates and test scores in reading and math were significantly higher in schools with high-quality libraries and certified librarians, even after controlling for school size and poverty.*
So again, thank you for helping us support our school community!
