Our recent Parents as Educational Partners (PEP) Nights brought together ESL families, teachers, and school staff at our elementary schools for an evening of connection and collaboration. These events fostered meaningful conversations about supporting student success and strengthening the school-home partnership.
Thank you to all who joined us in building these important connections! 💬🍎

At NCPS, we remember and celebrate the life and legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. His vision of equality and justice continues to guide us in shaping an inclusive and united future.
Let’s honor his dream by practicing kindness, standing up for what is right, and lifting one another up every day.
