CAMPUS STATUS AS OF 4/24/20

  • Governor Roy Cooper announced that North Carolina public schools will remain closed through the end of the 2019-2020 academic school year. We feel that it is in the best interest of our school community to remain in remote learning through the end of our school year, May 22.
