Our fourth graders have been learning all about The Civil War and had some visitors today! Mrs. Warren, our media coordinator, and her brother, Caleb Tart, grew up not too far from where the last battle in NC took place, Bentonville. In 1993, their father, James, looked up and found an actual bayonet from that time on his property in an oak tree! They came by to discuss with our students about what it's like having a piece of history in their family. So cool!
Awards day is coming! February 12th - Kinder 9:15, First 10:15, Second 2:15 and February 13th - Third 9:15, Fourth 10:15, Fifth 11:15
The district recently updated our schools yearly calendar. Please note the added workday in March in order to plan accordingly. Thank you!

Johnston County Publics Schools conducted a mock reunification exercise today at North Johnston Middle. The event was part of an ongoing effort to improve the district's emergency plan.
During the event students from Micro Elementary were taken to North Johnston Middle in a mock evacuation, and then their parents went through the reunification process to be reunited with their students. The event was a great success.
JCPS thanks our local law enforcement, emergency management, and school government officials for their continued support of our students, families, and schools!
