It's almost time for End of Year and End of Course Testing!

Here are some tips to help your student prepare:

• Be in attendance. Be on time. No early sign-outs during testing.
• Get a good night's sleep. Go to bed early.
• Eat a nutritional breakfast. Get those brain cells activated!
• Speak positively and have a good morning prior to testing.
• Electronics are prohibited in Testing Sites--cell phones, smart watches, smart glasses, fitness trackers, wireless earbuds. Leave them at home!

Hoke County Schools is conducting a public review of board policies related to student behavior, school safety, discipline procedures, and student rights. The district is using a phased review process so that each set of policies may be considered in smaller, more manageable groups.

Feedback gathered during each review window will be used to identify common themes, questions, and possible areas for clarification or revision as the district continues the policy review process.

Please enjoy the Parent & Family Curriculum Newsletter! We hope you enjoy this way of staying connected with resources provided by our Curriculum and Instruction department. In Hoke County Schools, we believe that the foundation of a successful educational experience begins with strong community connections. Our goal is to create an environment where families, educators, and community members work together to support student growth and achievement across all elementary schools.

Hoke County Schools was recognized by the North Carolina Department of Public Instruction as a Purple Star District. This award honors districts and schools that demonstrate military-friendly practices and show commitment to military students and families.

Schools earning the Purple Star Award were required to have a staff member as a designated point of contact for military students and families, a designated central administration staff member supporting the point of contact in the school and also the provision of annual professional development addressing special considerations for military students and families. Purple Star schools also provide a dedicated page on their websites for military family resources or links to the district’s webpage with military family resources, as well as a transition program to support inbound and outbound military students and families, along with a checklist for their use.  

Hoke County Schools is proud to have received this designation and to offer support to the many military families in our district.

Students at Hoke County High School had a unique opportunity to explore new possibilities on March 26 at the Non-Traditional Career Fair hosted by our Career and Technical Education Department.

Throughout the event, students connected with representatives from a wide variety of careers—many of which they may not have previously considered. These meaningful conversations opened doors to new ideas and helped students begin to envision the many paths their futures could take.

A special thank you to the Hoke County High School JROTC for their assistance in setting up the event, and to our outstanding CTE student ambassadors for helping everything run smoothly. We are also incredibly grateful to the many representatives from local organizations who took time out of their busy schedules to share their knowledge, experiences, and insights with our students.

Events like these play a vital role in preparing our students for success beyond the classroom. Thank you to everyone who made today such a valuable experience!
