Yesterday Marie's class read a story about a gingerbread man, watched a movie about a gingerbread man, watched a video about decorating gingerbread men, and decorated their own.
We have more photos from Spirit Week. These are from our Art teacher, Barbie Coble who always has fantastic school spirit!🎄🐝
Our residential students have been working hard in the classroom and in the kitchen this week! After school, some of our students prepared and cooked a special Christmas "breakfast for dinner" meal that included monkey bread, breakfast casserole, bacon, cookies and more.
For Spirit Week, Wednesday's theme was Wrapped-up Wednesday.
Barbie and her student are pictured here in front of the art room where Santa is making his presence known.
Yesterday's Spirit Week theme was Favorite Christmas/Winter Sweater day! These two came with matching favorite sweaters!

ENCSD's inclement weather activities include spending time shooting pool, air hockey and Foosball, watching closed caption TV, or just relaxing in the company of other students and staff.
At ENCSD, an inclement weather day looks a lot different for our residential students. They get to engage in fun activities throughout the day.

Good afternoon, students, families, and staff,
With temperatures expected to continue dropping this evening, the likelihood of black ice is high. Because temperatures will not rise above freezing until around noon tomorrow, we will not have school tomorrow (Tuesday, Dec 9th).
We were honored today when a representative of Congressman Don Davis's office presented our school with a congressional record of the congressman's speech. The record was accepted by our superintendent Cheryl Iannucci. Mr. Davis spoke to the U.S. House of Representatives about education and Eastern North Carolina School for the Deaf.
"...education must ensure that every child has a chance to live the American dream."
In two weeks we will have a Holiday Spirit Week where students and staff wear themed outfits to celebrate the season and our school spirit!

ENCSD is having our first "home" game tomorrow at 5:00pm, at Sallie B. Howard School. There will be no admission charge, but we will have a 50/50 raffle as well as a small concession stand.
