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.

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.
