Thursday was an incredible day for our students! North Stokes hosted a Career Fair with over 60 amazing vendors, and students from every high school in the county were invited to attend.
From hands-on demonstrations to one-on-one conversations, vendors shared valuable information about careers students may want to pursue in the future. It was an inspiring day filled with exploration, learning, and opportunities!
A huge THANK YOU to all of our vendors and community partners for investing in our students and helping them dream big. 💚🤍
North Stokes is Viking Strong!

Neal Marshall shared a touching message about being thankful, reminding us of 1 Thessalonians 5:18 — “In everything give thanks.”
We also reflected on Philippians 4:6 and Colossians 3:15–17, verses that call us to let gratitude shape our hearts, our prayers, and our lives. 💛
So thankful for this time of encouragement, fellowship, and faith. 🙏
All are welcome to attend each Wednesday morning at 8:10am.
