{mosimage}Smithfield - Approximately 100 student and parental volunteers met Saturday, January 21, 2012 to prepare Neuse Charter School (N.C.S.) for Homecoming Week, 2012. Entrenching its reputation as a true community school where families and volunteers play an integral part in the school's day-to-day operation, participants braved stormy weather as they prepared the campus for the week's festivities. N.C.S. Cougar Booster Club members, faculty, students and parents hung Welcome Home" ribbons on light posts, painted Cougar Blue paws onto the school's driveway and walkway to the Dr. Patricia Brady Harris Gymnasium, trimmed grass and landscaped the school's newly installed entry sign.

Establishing traditions is an important priority for the N.C.S. academic and athletic community. Academically, N.C.S. has earned an Honor School of Excellence rating for the last two years by the State of North Carolina Department of Public Instruction. Athletically, N.C.S. offers the following sports: Boys and Girls Soccer, Volleyball, Boys and Girls Basketball, Boys and Girls Golf, Baseball, Softball and Boys and Girls Track and Field. More sports will be added in subsequent years. The middle school teams compete in the Eastern North Carolina Middle School Conference (ENCMSC). For the upcoming realignment, the N.C.S. Cougar high school teams have been designated 1-A by the North Carolina High School Athletic Association (NCHSAA).
