Leadership Craven Class Education Day Recap

On Thursday, October 3rd, the Leadership Craven Class from the New Bern Area Chamber of Commerce visited our schools, including New Bern High, HJ MacDonald Middle, Trent Park Elementary, and Craven Early High School. Our students proudly led the tours, showcasing their favorite courses and inspiring teachers.

It was a true pleasure to host these community leaders and demonstrate the dynamic learning experiences happening in our classrooms. Many of the guests expressed surprise and excitement, with comments like, “Learning didn’t look like this when I was in school!” “Where’s the paper?” and “Does each student have an iPad?”

We are already looking forward to next year’s visit! Thank you to the Leadership Craven Class for taking the time to witness the innovative initiatives preparing our students for their futures.

FIRE PREVENTION SAFETY MONTH

Thank you to the New Bern Fire Department for providing a valuable learning experience for our City of New Bern Elementary Schools on fire prevention safety. Local firefighters deliver engaging, age-appropriate safety lessons through skits, online game challenges, and puppets.

We appreciate our community partners taking the time out of their busy schedules to visit our schools. These life lessons are so memorable for our students.
