Get ready—the Scholastic Book Fair is coming to our school! This is a great opportunity to build your child’s home library with new books they’ll dive into again and again.

The easiest way to let your child shop the Fair independently is by creating an eWallet. It’s easy to set up and easy for others to add funds- just go to scholastic.com and Find a Fair . The fair will also accept cash, credit/debit card, check made out to Swift Creek Middle and Apple Pay. Profits from the book fair will be used to purchase new books for the school library!

Here’s everything else you need to know about the Book Fair:
The book fair will be Tuesday, October 21st- Monday, October 27th during school hours

Thank you for supporting the Swift Creek Middle Library and your child's reading!

Dear Swift Creek Families,
At Swift Creek Middle, we’re proud to use PBIS (Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports) to build a positive, encouraging school culture. PBIS helps us teach and recognize behaviors that reflect our core values of respect, responsibility, and readiness to learn.
Students earn Creek Cash when they show these positive behaviors throughout the day. They can then use their Creek Cash to shop at our Creek Cart, where they can choose fun rewards, school supplies, and treats as recognition for their efforts.
We’re incredibly grateful to our Swift Creek PTSA for creating and managing the Creek Cart and for organizing an Amazon Wishlist to keep it stocked with exciting items for our students.
🛒 Amazon Wishlist: https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/73BYXDBIPGOM?ref_=wl_share
Your donations help motivate students, celebrate positive choices, and make Swift Creek an even better place to learn and grow. Thank you for your continued support of our students and our PBIS program!
With Appreciation,
Swift Creek Team

Dear Families,

Johnston County Public Schools is committed to building well-rounded students and consistently improving our schools for greater student success. You are receiving this communication because your school is participating in an opportunity to gather feedback on how we can better meet our goals of improving student success.

Over the next few weeks, students will participate in surveys so that we can better support all of our stakeholders. To learn more about your students' needs, we will be asking for your students’ feedback via an online survey that will begin on October 6 and will remain open for students through October 17.

We thank you in advance for your student’s participation. If you have any questions or concerns about the survey administration or if you want your student to opt out, please contact the school.

Abdallah Raddad exemplifies perseverance, kindness, and respect. When faced with challenges, he rises to the occasion. One notable example of his perseverance was when Abdallah fractured his leg in the 6th grade, but he didn’t let that deter his focus. He faced the challenge head-on and continued to work hard. Instead of becoming discouraged by this difficulty, Abdallah used this experience as an opportunity to grow. He continues to find the good in every situation.

Abdallah is respectful and kind to his teachers and peers. He is currently assisting a fellow student who is new to the country and speaks no English by translating. He has a warm personality and is willing to always lend a helping hand.

With Abdallah’s perseverance and kindness, the Swift Creek Middle community knows that this will lead to his continued success in all future pursuits. Abdallah exemplifies what it means to be truly determined and resilient.

We are proud to call him our Character Education Award recipient for Swift Creek Middle! Keep reaching for the stars! 👏

JCPS continues to shine! 🌟

We are excited to announce that Johnston County Public Schools has continued its journey to becoming one of the best districts in the state, according to 2024-2025 data recently released by NCDPI.

A few of the district highlights included a significant increase in student proficiency scores and school performance grades, with 93% of our schools having a school letter grade of A, B, or C! 75% of our schools met or exceeded growth, which is well above the state average.

Amazingly, 15 of our schools rank in the top 20% statewide, with seven schools in the top 10% for growth! Graduation rates for JCPS schools continue to rise, with JCPS reaching 92.5%, which is significantly higher than the state average of 87.7%

A huge thank you to our incredible educators, hardworking students, and supportive families for helping drive this success forward! 📈

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.
