This is happening in other school systems and we are collecting the information needed for Infinite Campus to investigate the issue and find a fix for it. Please fill out this brief survey to help us collect the needed information to make our report ONLY if you are having this issue. https://forms.gle/CC117Mjxmw2foDPn7

On behalf of Dr. Shaver, Superintendent of Schools, we appreciate the parents from all schools who participated in the Fall Virtual Parent Advisory Committee last night. Your feedback is essential, as your insights and recommendations contribute to our ongoing efforts to enhance the overall quality of education provided to all students.

Part of the feedback last night had to do with this particular opportunity for parents to participate in this virtual forum and how they wished it had been more widely advertised. From this feedback, Dr. Shaver is scheduling a second opportunity to host this Parent Advisory Meeting this coming Monday, October 27th at 6:30pm.

Ahead of the meeting, all interested parents need to download the ZOOM application on the device they are planning to use for this event. You also need to either email Mr. Morales your name, school affiliation and email address at jmorales@hyde.k12.nc.us or call the office at 252-926-3281 Ext. 3500 to collect the information.

The meeting ZOOM link will be emailed to those who registered in the morning on Monday, October 27th. Come join us and get involved with our school system!

Dr. Shaver hosts a Virtual Superintendent's Parent Advisory Committee twice a year to share important information and also to get feedback from all of you. While each school campus has a number of parents who are part of this committee, she would like to open this invitation to ANY parent/guardian at either school campus who is interested in joining as well. Your input is always highly appreciated!

The Fall virtual convening of this parent advisory committee is this Monday, October 20th starting at 6:30pm. if you are interested in attending, please email Mr. Morales at jmorales@hyde.k12.nc.us and share your name, school your child is enrolled at, and your phone and email. The ZOOM virtual link for the meeting will be shared with all who signed up this Monday morning at the latest.

Come join us and get involved with your school system!

Our school is partnering with Volunteer Medical Corps (VMC) to provide school-based telehealth services at no out of pocket costs for all students and staff.

This means that students and staff who feel sick during the day can go to the nurse’s office and talk to a doctor or nurse by video.

Telehealth appointments are available for common health issues like sore throats, pink eye, coughs, fevers, bruises, and sprains. This school-based telehealth service allows students to get care quickly and spend less time away from class.

For anyone to participate, a consent form is required. Please fill out your child's consent form by clicking the appropriate link below:

Laker Family!

It is with great excitement that we let you know that essential student supplies have been purchased for all students.  Every student will be given paper, pencils, and the necessary classroom supplies needed to make this a great year!  Backpacks and lunch boxes will still need to be provided by the family.  

You are still welcome to bring your own school supplies too! We know how much fun picking out a folder and binder can be and we don’t want to prevent you from having that moment!

If you have any questions, please call the school at 252-926-0240.  Have a great rest of your summer!
