Ms. Jamison
Last year, we proudly recognized Mr. Jamison as our Teacher Assistant of the Year, and yesterday he officially received his plaque!

While we are thankful for the impact he made as a teacher assistant, we are even more grateful that he chose to become a classroom teacher. As he finishes his first year teaching, we’ve loved watching him continue to make a difference in the lives of students each day.

Congratulations, Mr. Jamison! We are proud to have you as part of our school family! 🍎

At the end of the day on May 13, a Swain West Elementary School teacher responded to a report of a possible gun in a student's bookbag. The teacher immediately confiscated the bookbag, notified school officials, and determined that the item was a toy gun. We want to reassure our community that at no point were students or staff in any danger.

School officials followed all established safety protocols to ensure our learning environment remained secure and orderly. This incident marks the second time in the past week that a potential threat was identified and resolved quickly, preventing the need for a campus-wide lockdown.

We need your partnership to keep our campuses safe. Please take a moment this evening to speak with your children about appropriate behavior and school rules.

Important Reminder: No weapons of any kind—including toys, look-alikes, or replica items—are permitted on school grounds at any time. Bringing these items to school creates unnecessary alarm and disrupts the educational environment. We remain fully committed to maintaining a safe, focused environment for every student and staff member. Thank you for your continued support and vigilance.
