Swansboro High School
Weekly Updates March 29, 2020
Thank you for your support for our students and teachers as we continue to navigate through virtual and remote learning. I am incredibly proud of our entire Swansboro community who have embraced yet another challenge with a positive, can-do attitude. While our weekly calls typically include academic and athletic highlights from the week, today our highlight is sharing the great news that our cafeteria staff successfully served 6,158 meals this week. Wow - yet another reason why we are proud of our Swansboro community.
Tomorrow kicks off our S2S Virtual Spirit Week! We will pick 2 winners per day - 1 student and 1 staff. We will award those winners with a $10 pizza hut gift certificate each day:
- Monday is Patriot Pet day - show us your pet's love for our great country!
- Tuesday is Tik Tok Tuesday - share your pirate pride with a video!
- Wednesday is Coronacation day - dress for the vacation you wish you were on!
- Thursday is Isolation day - show your best social distancing practice or how you are protecting yourself.
- Friday is Purple Up day - show your support for our military families and service members by wearing as much purple as possible.
Be sure to tag us in your social media photos by using #sbhsvirtualspiritweek and email pictures to Helen.Gross@onslow.k12.nc.us.
Being isolated can be a stressful time for students. Be sure to reach out to one of our counselors if you would like to schedule a virtual chat: https://forms.office.com/Pages/ResponsePage.aspx?id=2oj0MM90xkqfNEBYMyDapDN6uTBNULFJlyWug6L-xUZUOUFYNkJEVDYwVkkxR1Q3U0tTTjZXV1o4OC4u
