Here is the first edition of the Dragon Daily News. In the next few weeks, we will collect applications from fourth and fifth graders who are interested in hosting and then will select our hosts.

Note:
For the time being, we will only select fourth and fifth graders as hosts. Hosts must attend school each day and arrive on time. Specific qualifications will be shared during library classes.

Unless unforeseen circumstances arise, broadcasts will be aired daily at 7:30am and will be available for viewing by anyone with the link. Be sure to check these broadcasts for current events at NRES. We will also send newsletters in addition to the weekly phone calls and texts that Mr. Richardson shares on Sundays.

Welcome to the Jungle!

This year's Chromebook fee is $27. The fee may be paid in person, or online. Online payments should be made through School Cash Online. School Cash Online will include a $1.50 processing fee per student.

Here is the link for School Cash Online: https://stokescountyschools.schoolcashonline.com/

You may also access it from the Stokes County Schools website.

OPEN HOUSE is THIS Thursday! You're welcome to come at 8am, 11am, or 5pm to meet your child's teacher. You do not need an appointment, just come at whichever of the time slots is most convenient for you.

DUE TO ROAD CONSTRUCTION at the main entrance to Nancy Reynolds, there is a DETOUR in place. If you usually travel to NRES by way of Hwy 66N, you'll be detoured to King Road off of Hwy 268. The detour takes you to Brown Mountain Church Road, then back to Hwy 66 at Brown Mountain Church. There are barricades in front of the church blocking through traffic. You can travel past those barricades going South on Hwy 66 until you get to the back parking lot of the school. Just past the back parking lot entrance are more barricades where the road construction begins. The front parking lot is inaccessible. You will need to enter and exit the school from the back parking lot.

Thank you!

🚨 Important Message for Families Enrolling New Students 🚨

As we transition to Infinite Campus, we are experiencing some growing pains. Many families who began the Online Registration (OLR) process for new students may have received a message saying they’d get a follow-up email to complete the application — but unfortunately, that email was never sent due to a system issue.

💡 If you started the OLR and are still waiting for a confirmation email, please restart the process from the beginning to ensure your application is received.

📣 We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience and appreciate your patience as we work through these technical challenges.

Beginning with the 2025-26 school year, Stokes County Schools has transitioned from Powerschool to a new student information system, NC SIS powered by Infinite Campus. The new NC SIS provides additional features to help you monitor your child’s educational progress and a mobile-friendly experience that makes it easier to see everything on the go. This system will replace PowerSchool as your one-stop-shop for grades, attendance, assignments and other important school information. More information will be available late July. Thank you!

Subject: Update on PowerSchool Data Breach and Ongoing Protection Measures Dear Stokes County Families, We want to make you aware of a recent update related to the PowerSchool data breach that was originally reported in January of this year. Recently, several schools and North Carolina Department of Pubic Instruction (NCDPI) employees across the state received messages from threat actors claiming to have access to student and teacher data from that breach. We have been informed that several Canadian school districts have received similar messages as well. Based on the current status of NCDPI’s investigation, they believe that the threat actors have access to the same data tables that were originally compromised. These data tables include student and staff names, contact information, social security numbers (limited student social security numbers), birthdays, medical notes, passwords (limited) and parent/guardian information. NCDPI has already notified appropriate law enforcement agencies, who are actively investigating this incident. We want to assure you that your Stokes County Schools and NCDPI have done everything possible to protect this information. PowerSchool, the vendor responsible for the incident, has taken full responsibility for the breach and is providing support services for those impacted. What You Need to Know: Please do not open any suspicious links or emails related to this incident. - Do not engage with anyone claiming to have this data. - PowerSchool is offering two years of free identity protection and credit monitoring to all affected students and educators through July 1, 2025. NCDPI is advocating for this window to be extended further to ensure everyone has time to enroll. Affected individuals can enroll in identity protection and credit monitoring at no cost to themselves here --> https://www.powerschool.com/security/sis-incident/notice-of-united-states-data-breach/ Services include: - Two years of complimentary identity protection for all students and educators affected - Two years of complimentary credit monitoring for all adult students and educators affected These services are available regardless of whether an individual's Social Security number was compromised. Additional protection: Impacted users can freeze their identity for free through the North Carolina Department of Justice. LINK: https://ncdoj.gov/protecting-consumers/protecting-your-identity/free-security-freeze/ As we continue to work through this incident, we are committed to supporting students, families and staff with transparency and care. Sincerely, Phillip Bradley Rice, Ed.D. Superintendent Stokes County Schools
