Just because our students in the class of 2023 have graduated - that doesn't mean we've forgotten about them! Our amazing Student Services staff has partnered with JCC to offer a really amazing event this summer - Free Coffee, Donuts, and Tuition! They held an event earlier this summer where recent high school grads were invited out to Dunkin Donuts, where JCPS and JCC staff helped with applications to JCC (which is offering FREE tuition!!) - and there was free coffee and donuts, to boot!
It was so successful that they're holding another event - this Monday, July 17th at the Smithfield Dunkin Donuts Location from 2:00 - 4:00 PM. We hope to see our recent grads there!

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.
