Good evening, Eagle Families! Happy Saint Patrick's Day! This is Principal McGeachy with just a few updates for the upcoming week and beyond: First, this is a quick reminder for families with legal residence in Edgecombe County. As you recall, rising 10th -13th-grade scholars at the Early College who reside in Edgecombe County must complete the legacy opt-in request by March 22nd to remain enrolled in our school. Again, this only applies to those scholars whose residence is in Edgecombe County. If you have questions or need clarification, please contact the school and speak with our data manager, Mrs. Godwin. Our Global Scholars will participate in a Global Fair with NCC on March 25th. The Fair will feature international foods, dancing, and other cultural activities. Mark your calendars for March 26th. On this date, our scholars involved with the Peer Group Connection (PGC) mentoring program will have an evening of activities and information sharing for families from 5:30 to 6:30 p.m. Now that some warmer temperatures have started to arrive, I would like to provide a gentle reminder about adhering to the Nash County Public Schools dress code policy. Scholars who are in violation will be given the opportunity to have a change of clothes brought to school or potentially face a disciplinary consequence. As always, thanks for your support. Please visit our web page for updated information about our school. Enjoy the rest of your evening!

First, on Tuesday, our Student Government Association will host its annual talent show, and scholars who have chosen to perform will have an opportunity to share their talents. Funds generated from ticket sales will be used to fund our prom and various community service projects. The ACT make-up test will also be administered on Tuesday for those scholars who were unable to take the test on the initial date.
On Wednesday, our Super Seniors will host a Waffle Fundraiser in the Nash Community College Café to generate funds for their end-of-year trip. We thank Ms. Melodie Strickland, café manager, for agreeing to support this event.
Thursday, March 14th, is National Pi Day, a celebration of the mathematical constant, which equates to 3.14. Our math teachers are sure to have something special in store for our scholars. Also on Thursday, representatives from Barton College will be on campus to meet with our scholars and share information about the college.
Lastly, although scholars have no classes on Friday, cap and gown pictures will be taken by LifeTouch from 8:00 a.m. until 2:40 p.m. Scholars should refer to the guidance provided by LifeTouch in preparation for their photo appointment. If you have questions, please contact Mrs. Tabitha Edwards.

With new safety legislation effective March 1, Nash County Public Schools has updated its protocols accordingly.
Nash County Public Schools, distinguished as one of six districts in North Carolina to receive the Project AWARE grant, exemplifies commitment to creating a secure educational setting. This grant, provided by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration and managed through the Department of Public Instruction, highlights the district's proactive approach to student safety.
