Swansboro Elementary
March 15, 2020
SCHOOL CLOSED FOR STUDENTS FOR AT LEAST TWO WEEKS.
Saturday NC Governor Roy Cooper directed the closure of all North Carolina public schools. Beginning Monday, March 16, there will be no school for students through at least March 30. Swansboro Elementary School will have a Teacher Workday tomorrow (Monday, March 16th). If parents need to retrieve any medications, laptops, or personal items from the school, they may do so tomorrow from 10 am -3 pm. We will NOT be sending home instructional materials tomorrow. If it is not necessary for you to come to school or if you are sick, please stay home. Remote learning is scheduled to begin on Wednesday, March 18th. We are waiting on more information from NCDPI and OCS regarding what this will look like for our students. As soon as I have more information, I will send it out via all call and email. The district is also looking into providing food centers and technical support centers for our 1:1 devices; however, we do not have the details at this time. As always, if you are in need of assistance, please email me at page.highsmith@onslow.k12.nc.us. We appreciate your support, understanding and flexibility as we work through this truly unprecedented event.
A huge thank you goes out to Ms. Carrie Jackson for planning such a phenomenal Career Day. We appreciate all those that shared their careers with our students. It was a wonderful event.
