Leland, NC – Charter Day School students returned to school on July 18th, 2019. A brand-new Kindergarten building greeted students as they entered campus. The new state-of-the-art building houses four classrooms and two intervention rooms for private instruction. The building was built over a period of six months. A new building also greeted first grade students this year. As students arrived teachers and volunteers stood outside to welcome them. At 8:00 AM all students recited the school pledge and started learning math, reading, grammar, handwriting, history, and Latin.
Laurie Benton, Headmaster of Charter Day School, commented, “Everyone is so excited for the new school year! We are truly grateful the success of Charter Day School enables us to continually upgrade our campus with state-of-the-art facilities! We look forward to another year of using our classical curriculum to educate future citizens!”
