Please plan to join us for Jesse Weinberger's presentation on October 21st at 6:30pm in Pendleton County Middle High School auditorium. This humorous and insightful presentation will be focused on internet safety for parents and keeping our students safe online.

NFES PTSO is starting their Fall Spice Fundraiser! There have been a lot of changes this year. There are several products the company no longer offers and they have changed some of the other products. We have revised the order form to better match the forms the company sends us, so please look over the order form carefully. We are happy to offer jerky mix again this year but it is packaged differently than in years past and we cannot get all the “flavors” we used to. The same goes for bologna and sausage seasoning. Please return order forms to NFES or any NFES student by Monday Oct. 18. We anticipate the spices being delivered by Thanksgiving.

The North Fork Elementary School PTSO is having their annual Spice Sale Fundraiser. If you are interested in ordering spices, please reach out to an NFES student or contact the school. Orders and money are due October 18, 2021. Thank you for your support.
