Congratulations to Brynlie Jones, who earned First-Team ECNC honors, and Taytum Maddox, who earned Honorable Mention.
Great job ladies! It's a great day to be a Tiger!
Their continued support helps provide meaningful field trip experiences for our Kindergarten through 2nd Grade students and supports our PCC through 2nd Grade PBIS activities throughout the school year.
Because of their generosity, our students have opportunities to learn beyond the classroom, create lasting memories, and be recognized and rewarded for demonstrating positive behaviors and following our ROARS expectations!
We are incredibly grateful for P.I.E.'s dedication to giving back to our schools and making a difference in the lives of our students.
Thank you, P.I.E., for investing in our students and helping make North School such a special place to learn and grow!
