The Public Schools of Robeson County Board of Education held a meeting on July 8, 2025, where several key decisions were made that will impact the local educational community.

One of the most significant announcements was the approval of a new principal for Parkton Elementary School. The board recognized the retirement of Miss Christy West, expressing gratitude for her years of service. In her place, the board has recommended Miss Christine T. for the principal position, which will come with an initial two-year contract. The community will have the opportunity to meet Miss T. at the upcoming board meeting in August, marking a new chapter for the school.

In addition to the principal appointment, the board unanimously approved the personnel report and the minutes from the previous closed session on June 10, 2025. These approvals reflect the board's commitment to maintaining transparency and effective governance within the district.

The meeting concluded with a motion to adjourn, wrapping up a session that highlighted important leadership changes and ongoing administrative processes within the Public Schools of Robeson County. As the district prepares for the upcoming school year, these decisions will play a crucial role in shaping the educational environment for students and staff alike.
