Principal, William W. Peele, iii.
Greetings Falcon Family,
On behalf of the faculty and staff, I want to officially welcome you to the 2024-2025 school year. We’re excited about your students’ arrival and look forward to a successful year. Bertie High School has a rich history of excellence in academics, athletics, and extracurricular accomplishments.
Based on preliminary EOC data, I am pleased to announce that we saw increases in proficiency. I have every reason to believe that Bertie High School will be removed from the low-performing list. These accomplishments were achieved by providing experiences that are engaging, meaningful, and challenging. We are proud of this progress and excited about the possibilities to come.
We will continue our mission at Bertie High School by providing educational experiences that will serve as a foundation for success in college, careers, and life. Our goal is to maintain our tradition of excellence in everything we do. Our theme this year is Never Stop Growing, Be the Change. Bertie High School is a place where students are able to take advantage of educational opportunities and grow into responsible adolescents.
We are challenging our students by offering rigorous courses such as Honors and Advanced Placement options, including AP Seminar and Environmental Science. Students also have opportunities to participate in a variety of clubs such as HOSA, Art Club, Language Club, National Honor Society, Yearbook, and FFA. Remember, your high school experience is what you make of it. We look forward to working with you to ensure a very successful year.
We are proud of our students, teachers, staff, parents, and guardians. Our faculty and staff are dedicated to challenging our students academically and guiding them to become independent thinkers, good decision-makers, and problem solvers. We are committed to removing barriers that may stand in the way of their success.
My experience has shown that collaborating with the school community, businesses, and stakeholders creates a culture of exceptional quality in an effective school. It takes a village to prepare our students as 21st-century learners who are ready to navigate an ever-changing world. Our faculty and staff look forward to working with you and your students this year
You can’t hide that Falcon pride!
Sincerely,
William W. Peele III, Principal
