May the spirit be with you! Thanks to the efforts of parents Megan Queen and Grace Messinger and a donation by Vulcan Materials Company’s Stokesdale facility, a large rock was delivered to Northern Elementary School on the morning of March 1. The rock, aka “spirit rock,” will be periodically painted and decorated by students to showcase upcoming events and promote school spirit.
