📚✨ Exciting News, NES Hawks! ✨📚

We’re thrilled to announce that our school has received a Walmart Spark Good Grant to help fund our Spring Author Visit!

🎉 A huge thank you to Manager Nicole and our friends at the Newport Walmart Neighborhood Market for their generous support of our school and our students. Be sure to thank her if you happen to see her while shopping at Walmart!💙💛

This grant will help bring author and poet Allan Wolf to Newport Elementary, where he’ll inspire our kindergarten through fifth grade students with his creativity, humor, and love of words — the perfect way to kick off National Poetry Month this spring! 🖋️🎶

We can’t wait to welcome Allan Wolf and watch our young readers and writers light up with poetic inspiration! 🌟 #ThankYouWalmart #SparkGood #AllanWolf #NationalPoetryMonth #NewportElementary #WeLoveOurLibrary #ReadersAreLeaders #NESReads #NESRocks

Parents, it's time to update (or enroll for the first time!) in our Infinite Campus Parent Portal. This is a way for you to update forms digitally each year (less signing papers--yay!) AND it helps keep you in the loop about your student. On our website (https://carteretcountyschoolsnc.sites.thrillshare.com/o/nes/page/for-parents), you'll see an icon like this orange and green one that you can click to update.

You can also access it by visiting https://bit.ly/ccpsparentportal. If you have never accessed this before, visit this link to take you to a video tutorial on getting started.

You will need your student's ID number to get the "Access Key", and the video walks you through this process step-by-step.

https://bit.ly/ccpsparentportalactivation

Please call the office or reach out to Mr. Daniels if you have questions. Thanks!
