Lincoln County Public Education Foundation (LCPEF) Grant Winner Abby Goodson, Art Teacher at Catawba Springs Elementary, used grant funds to purchase four pottery wheels for her art classes. In Clay Club, students stay after school and learn the basics of pottery and clay molding.
The LCPEF funds mini teaching grants that demonstrate innovative approaches to instructional practice as well as solve educational problems or meet significant challenges that have not been met effectively.

October is NC Countdown to College Month🎓🏫
NC Countdown to College (C2C) is a month-long initiative to help high school seniors learn more about taking three important college enrollment steps: residency, applying for financial aid, and college applications.
Many North Carolina colleges and universities participate in C2C by waiving application fees during College Application Week (CAW) - a great way to save on college costs! This year, CAW begins on October 21 at 7:30 a.m. and ends on October 27 at 11:59 p.m.
Reach out to your school counselor for more information.
