Monday, August 30th was a special day for Dr. Miller, Superintendent as she took the time to meet with Senior student leaders at New Bern High School to listen to their concerns and answer any questions they had regarding the return to school. It was also important for the seniors to hear first hand the district is NOT planning on shutting school down after Labor Day and to hear how they could help in keeping us in school.

Dr. Miller plans to meet with our seniors at all 5 of our high schools this week so each school can hear there is no hidden agenda to close the schools for their last year of high school or any of our schools for that matter. The main goal is to keep all students and staff in school safe and healthy.

With the holiday weekend approaching it is critical we all do our part and wear our mask while at school and if anyone is experiencing any COVID like symptoms (Fever or chills, Cough, Shortness of breath or difficulty breathing, Fatigue, Muscle or body aches, Headache, new loss of taste or smell, Sore throat, Congestion or runny nose, nausea or vomiting, Diarrhea) to please stay home and contact your child's school nurse and/or your health care provider for the best next steps.

If your child was issued a Kajeet or an Orbics Verizon HotSpot you may soon see a disruption in service as those data plans will be expiring.

If your child is still in need, please contact your school and a request can be made for a T-Mobile HotSpot.  These devices provide 100GB/year...once the 100GB have been used, the device will no longer operate.

(Students should return old hotspots to school and tech services will collect them.)

On Friday, September 3rd, Dr. Wendy A. Miller, Superintendent of Craven County Schools had a great opportunity to visit with senior leaders at Havelock High. The conversation continued on how we can make this a great school year and what we need to do to be able to stay in school. The students were so inspiring because they want to stay in school and have a great year. They believe in their school principal and staff and know they want what is best for them.
It was truly heartwarming to hear these genuine words from the students and a great way to end the week. Next stop the Early Colleges!
