We’re proud to celebrate Riverview Elementary School Exceptional Teacher, Marquitta Lassiter, for being named a finalist for the North Carolina Center for the Advancement of Teaching’s (NCCAT) 2026 Burroughs Wellcome Fund NC Beginning Teacher of the Year Award. Ms. Lassiter has distinguished herself through her commitment to instructional excellence, innovation in the classroom, and her ability to inspire and support every learner she serves.

Her passion for teaching and unwavering focus on student success exemplify the very best of the profession. As a finalist, Ms. Lassiter has been invited to participate in NCCAT’s Beginning Teacher of the Year Program, which will take place March 9–13, 2026, at the Truist Leadership Center in Greensboro. This week-long experience includes leadership development sessions, collaborative discussions, sharing of best practices, and formal interviews. The official recognition event will be held on Thursday, March 12, 2026, at Wake Forest University, where the state winner will be announced.

We are incredibly proud of Ms. Lassiter and grateful for the difference she makes each day for our students, families, and school. Congratulations on this well-deserved recognition!

We want to sincerely thank you for your patience as we continue making adjustments to our bus schedules. Like many districts, we are short on bus drivers, and this has caused delays for some of our students. Our Transportation Department is working diligently each day to update routes and improve efficiency.

If your child is no longer riding the bus, please contact your child’s school so we can make accurate changes. We also encourage families to download the "Here Comes the Bus" app to track your child’s bus in real time.

For after-hours bus concerns, please call 252-642-3681.

Thank you for your continued patience and support as we work to serve every student with excellence.
