Today this young man asked Mrs. Gibson how many weeks we have been in school. When Mrs. Gibson told him, "three weeks," he told her, "Well, this is the best third week of school I've ever had. I'm doing such a great job I got to take this laptop to Mrs. Laird and I've earned 5 tickets!" Shout out to this young man for all of his hard work! Way to start the year off strong!!!

Social media threats continue circulating in our area and around the Eastern Shore. These threats have been analyzed by law enforcement and our school safety partners and deemed to be non-credible. As always, student and staff safety is our highest priority. Thank you to our students and families for sharing these social media posts with law enforcement and school personnel. Please continue to do so. You can also report threats to the Safe Schools Tip Line at 1-833-MD-B-SAFE.


Our new librarian Mrs. Pace welcomed our students to the library with a fun getting to know you writing assignment. Students described themselves in an introduction to her. She made a poster of some things our students shared with her. Then scholars got to check out books 📚











The Maryland Center for School Safety released information late last night about a nationwide social media threat that has been circulating throughout communities. SCPS wants to make all of our families aware that this threat has been deemed non-credible by local law enforcement, and schools will continue normal operations today. As always, student and staff safety is our highest priority and we appreciate the outreach from our community on this issue.
