❄A WEEK TO REMEMBER⛄
What a winter wonderland we’ve experienced this week! 🌨️ Southeastern North Carolina isn’t exactly known for snow days, but Mother Nature sure surprised us with a hefty blanket of white ❄️. From building snowmen ⛄ to sledding adventures 🛷 and even a few creative snowball fights, it’s been a joy to see the pictures and videos shared by our families. Whether you were out braving the snow or cozy inside with hot chocolate ☕, it’s clear our community made the most of this rare treat!
We’ve had such an overwhelming response to the hashtag #PCSSnowDay that this week’s newsletter is devoted entirely to showcasing how people around the district enjoyed the snow. Grab a cup of something warm, sit back, and enjoy these heartwarming highlights from an unforgettable week! 📸✨
Just a reminder - it is still cold and wet outside (as of 11:30am Friday) and we plan to announce plans for Monday on Sunday afternoon. Stay tuned!
❄PIRATE PARTY!🏴☠️
☃️📹 We’re kicking off this week’s newsletter with a must-see snow day mashup from the amazing staffs at Topsail High and South Johnson High! They’ve shared their photos and videos to capture all the snowy fun, from sledding adventures to laugh-out-loud moments. It’s the perfect way to celebrate this wintery week and see your favorite educators in action—don’t miss it! ❄️✨
