This Memorial Day, Hoke County Schools honors and remembers the brave men and women who gave their lives in service to our country. Their sacrifice has protected the freedoms we enjoy each day and will never be forgotten.

As we spend time with family and friends this holiday weekend, we pause to reflect with gratitude on the courage, dedication, and selflessness of our fallen heroes and the families who carry their legacy forward.

We are especially thankful for the many military families and veterans who are part of our Hoke County Schools community.

May we always remember the true meaning of Memorial Day.

This week, we celebrated our amazing 5th graders who received the President’s Award for Academic Excellence. 🎉📚🏅

These students have worked incredibly hard throughout ALL of their elementary school years, and our school is super proud of each and every one of them. Their dedication, perseverance, and commitment to doing their best has truly paid off!

Congratulations to all of our award recipients — we can’t wait to see all the amazing things you accomplish in middle school and beyond. 💜✨

Hoke County Schools will be closed Monday, May 25th in observance of Memorial Day.

As always, the Hoke County Schools calendar can be found at https://www.hcs.k12.nc.us/calendars
