Swift Creek Elementary School

Today, we proudly celebrated the grand opening of Swift Creek Elementary with a ribbon cutting, special ceremonies, and the dedication of the media center!

This highly anticipated 2022 bond referendum project, which consists of nearly 116,000 square feet of space, will serve students from Pre-K through fifth grade, providing a fresh and innovative location for Johnston County students to enjoy their journey to a brighter future in education. With the capacity for 939 students, the state-of-the-art two-story design has an open, contemporary theme, and features 56 classrooms, a shared cafeteria, auditorium, and gym space.

Welcoming our students, staff, families, and community members into this space for the first time was unforgettable, and we look forward to watching Swift Creek grow into another exceptional JCPS school.

More Grand Opening pictures coming soon!

Johnston County Public Schools is committed to providing quality education to its students and professional learning environments for its staff, free of distractions, and supporting high-quality teaching and learning, enhancing student well-being, and maintaining a safe and focused school environment.

Recent studies indicate that cell phone use, particularly for social media and interaction, can interfere with students' ability to focus on learning and negatively impact students in many ways. Excessive use of cell phones and social media has been linked to lower academic performance, increased behavioral issues, and other conditions that hinder students' ability to excel.

In recent legislation, House Bill 959, Session Law 2025-38, revisions were made addressing clear guidelines for the use of cell phones to include educational purposes. The Johnston County Board of Education has adopted Policy Code: 4318 Use of Wireless Communication Devices.

Families are strongly encouraged to review the policy in its entirety.
