Our wonderful custodial staff were hard at it and learning new strategies to keep our schools environments in tip-top shape. Last week's team building and training exercises were informative, interactive, and a great opportunity for the entire team to grow closer.
Way to go team! ✨

For kids who rely on school meals, summer can be the hungriest time of year, and hunger has short- and long-term consequences for a child’s health, education and well-being. Making sure kids and teens have access to nutritious summer meals is especially important this summer.
The Summer Meals program is funded by the USDA and run by school districts and local organizations, and sites can be found throughout the community. We’re always happy to see you at various locations throughout Johnston County, but there may be more convenient locations closer to you. Families can text “FOOD” or “COMIDA” to 304-304 and type in a zip code to find nearby summer meals sites, along with operating days and times. No application, registration or proof of residency or citizenship is required at sites.
