⚠️ Heads up: Chromebooks & iPads won’t be issued to students with outstanding Renewals/Updates — so don’t wait!

Today was all about our Pre-K students! 🎓💜💛
Congratulations to our Pre-K graduates! We are so proud of all they have learned and accomplished this year. From making new friends to learning important skills, they have grown so much and are more than ready for their next adventure in kindergarten.

Yesterday was a great day for our 4th graders! They had a fantastic time at the Beaufort Historic Site and loved riding the double-decker bus while learning about our community’s rich history. 🏴☠️🚌
