Message from Superintendent Christopher M. Lowder Ed. D.
Welcome to the 2018-2019
school year! We are excited to
welcome back our returning
students and eager to meet our
new students. Our staff has spent the summer attending professional development
conferences and classes designed to enhance their knowledge
and skills so that they can continue to provide our students with
classroom experiences and enrichment opportunities that are infused
with technology and engaging lessons.
Cabarrus County Schools
continues to offer families a
myriad of educational choices
and options from STEM and
International Baccalaureate to
National Academy Foundation
certified career academies to
early colleges and language
immersion and year-round
learning. Our district continues to grow. We are grateful to the Cabarrus
County Board of Commissioners for its support and are excited about
the construction projects currently under way in our district:
Students attending Royal Oaks
Elementary School will head back to school in a new building. The
new school reopens as an A+ School of the Arts – another innovative
school choice option for our families.
