Monday, February 9, is Parent-Teacher Conference Day for all schools except CCCA. This is a great opportunity to meet with your child’s teacher and discuss how your child is doing in school.

There will be no school for students on this day so that we can focus on these important meetings.

Conferences will be held from 11:30 AM to 7:00 PM. You may choose a time that works best for you and meet in person, by phone, or online—whichever is most convenient.

During the conference, you will learn about your child’s strengths, areas for growth, and ways we can work together to support their success. To schedule your conference, please contact your child’s teacher directly.

Thank you for your continued support of your child’s learning!

For over four decades, Mrs. Darlene Graham has worked tirelessly to improve the lives of students at Hallsboro-Artesia. She has made countless sacrifices for the community surrounding her alma mater and has continually served by giving back to the Waccamaw Siouan Tribe. As of yesterday, Mrs. Graham has officially retired from HAES—but we know she will never truly be a stranger in Panther Country. She will continue to share her knowledge and advocate for the acknowledgement and betterment of Native Americans across North Carolina. We love you, Mrs. Darlene. Congratulations on a well-deserved retirement!
