Our Summer F.O.M.O on what our Shuford Owls are up to while they're away is being subdued☀️

Check out rising 5th grader, Stella, who made lots of memories this summer with her sister, Sophie, former Shuford Owl and rising college student, as they explored Utah’s Mighty Five National Parks and road tripped through Florida. 😍

At the August 6th, North Carolina State Board of Education meeting, State Board members stated that they will carefully review the proposal and all accompanying materials using the criteria established in North Carolina law. At this time, they anticipate discussing the review process, timeline, and next steps at their September meeting.

Please consider submitting your public comment on why they should NOT move forward with the merger by emailing Tiffany Lucas, General Counsel for the North Carolina Department of Public Instruction, [email protected] ..

Make your voice heard and make it clear why Newton-Conover City Schools should remain untouched and allowed to continue their excellence, independent of others, for generations to come.

A huge THANK YOU to the incredible students and volunteers who dedicated their time and energy to making Shuford an even more beautiful place to learn and grow! 💙💛

From spreading fresh mulch and raking playground areas to pulling weeds, cleaning flower beds, and sprucing up our campus grounds, every helping hand made a difference. Your hard work, teamwork, and pride in our school truly showed today.

We are so grateful for everyone who came out to serve our school community. Because of you, Shuford is looking better than ever and is ready to welcome students back to a clean, inviting campus!
