I have and had family attend this school probably the last 5 years and being from Tarboro you can’t help but hear stuff from parents and even current staff but in my opinion NEPOTISM is what the current problem at this school seems to be. The principal is hiring either friends or church acquaintances.Would like to see how much longer will the SUPERINTENDENT V. Bridges allow this to go on?

"Looking for tranquility? Then consider this community. There is no crime here and the area abounds with wildlife and beauty. A great neighborhood for walking. and enjoying the outdoors. It's only a short distance to the Town Common, where festivals are held spring, summer, and fall. Downtown, there is a cafe that was rated "one of the top 100" in the country, On the Square. Durham and Raleigh are only an hour and a half away."
