🇺🇸 We were honored to host a visit from the Daughters of the American Revolution, which was a wonderful opportunity to connect with the local chapter dedicated to patriotism, historical preservation, and education. This special event featured education about life during the late 16th century and a chance to try on clothes from the era!

Jones County Public Schools is grateful for the opportunity to be the first district in North Carolina to offer grant-funded professional development supported by the NCSSA, the North Carolina Alliance for School Leadership. Our lead teachers and principals do excellent work!

Jones County Public Schools was excited to host the NC Teacher of the Year, Ms. Rachel Candaso, for a tour of Trenton Elementary early this morning. Ms. Candaso was guided around the building with two of our 5th-grade leaders, as well as Trenton Elementary Principal, Ms. Donna Higgins. It was a special opportunity to showcase a few of the great things happening daily in our public schools across Jones County.

Please join us tonight at 6PM for our Veteran's Day Program. First through fifth grade will be performing. Students will meet in the media center at 5:45 to walk in together. Please have students wear red, white, and blue if possible. We look forward to seeing everyone tonight!

You're Invited!
Parents and students, join us for the 5th Annual Back-to-School Bash this Saturday at 10:00 a.m. at the Jones County Civic Center! The Filling Station, along with local partners and vendors, is providing a fun-filled morning that will include school supplies, on-site screenings, lunches, and more as we kick off the new school year together. It's a great way to connect with the community and get excited for the year ahead!

We can't wait to see you there!

Open House will be held Thursday, August 21, 2025 from 3:30-6:30PM.

Good morning, Trenton Elementary School families! This is a reminder that report cards are available for pickup in the front office. The office is open Monday through Thursday, 7:30 am to 4:00 pm, every week. End-of-grade reports, as well as other certificates and awards, are also available in the office. Thank you!

Good afternoon parents and guardians! Tomorrow is the first of several very important days at Trenton Elementary School. Your child and their teachers have been preparing for this day for the entire school year. Tomorrow, grades 3 through 5 will take their reading EOG. Friday, they will take their math EOG and Monday the 5th grade students will take their science EOG. Please make sure that they get adequate sleep and give them a hug of encouragement. If they will use their strategies, I know they will do fantastic! Go Gators!

Good afternoon, Out of an abundance of caution due to inclement weather, tonight's CTE Honor Society and National Honor Society Inductions have been postponed to a later date to be determined. Thank you.

Dear Parents and Guardians, Your 3rd - 5th grade student will take the End-of-Grade Assessments from May 15-19, 2025. It is essential that your child has a good night’s sleep and is present on these days. Students and their teachers have worked hard to prepare for these assessments, and we want them to have the best opportunity to show their growth! Suppose your child does not demonstrate proficiency on the Reading or Math End of Grade test. In that case, they will be provided remediation and a re-administration opportunity during the week of May 20-23, 2025. However, they must have taken the first assessment to qualify for this support and reassessment. Please call me with any questions.
