🌟 Welcome New NCPS Teachers & Staff! 🌟
Over the past week, our new team members have been busy with professional development sessions to gear up for the school year ahead. They've also enjoyed exploring the unique beauty of the Eastern Shore with trips to the Barrier Island Center and the islands themselves, all while learning about the amazing community programs available.
A big thank you to everyone who’s made this journey smooth—whether through professional guidance or helping them feel at home. We have received so many kind words about this year's programming - "I feel so welcomed!"... "Best New Teacher Training EVER!"
We’re so excited for a great year ahead! 🌊📚
