📸 Say Cheese! Our Yearbook Staff Is Putting Their Photography Skills to Work! 📸
Our Yearbook class recently welcomed Chandler Queen, a real estate photographer with a B.S. in Commercial Photography, who shared professional tips and techniques for capturing great photos. 📷
After learning from Chandler, our staff members put their new skills to the test with a Photo Scavenger Hunt! 🔎📸 Teams were challenged to capture creative photos while thinking about composition, perspective, lighting, storytelling, and what makes a photo yearbook-worthy.
But the competition didn't stop there! After the hunt, staff members participated in a photo critique, where they reviewed and awarded points to their fellow teams. 🏆
The team with the most points earned an awesome prize: FIRST PICK of the yearbook pages they get to work on! 🎉
We had a great time learning, creating, competing, and—most importantly—thinking like photographers and storytellers.
Now comes the exciting part... choosing which of these scavenger hunt photos might make it into the 2026–27 North Stokes High School Yearbook! 📖✨
A huge thank-you to Chandler Queen for sharing professional photography knowledge with our students and helping our Yearbook staff see photography from a whole new perspective!
📸 We can't wait to see which moments make the pages!

🪵🔨 FROM SCRAP WOOD TO SOMETHING SPECIAL! 🧂🫙
Mr. Taylor’s 1st Period Carpentry students turned leftover materials into something useful—and they put some serious woodworking skills to work! 👏
Students created these custom salt and pepper shakers by laminating two different types of wood together to create a unique finished product. 🌳🪵
Along the way, students practiced:
📏 Measurement & precision – accurately measuring and planning where each hole needed to go.
🛠️ Drill Press skills – boring the passages for the salt and pepper.
🔧 Router operation – finishing and shaping the edges for a smooth, professional look.
✨ Finishing techniques – applying mineral oil to protect and enhance the natural beauty of the wood.
But there’s an even bigger lesson behind these shakers! ♻️🌎
The wood came from scrap pieces left over from previous projects, giving students a hands-on lesson in Green Construction: Reuse & Recycle. Instead of throwing usable materials away, they found a new purpose for them!
This is more than a woodworking project—it’s problem-solving, precision, creativity, craftsmanship, and sustainability all rolled into one! 💚🖤
Way to turn scraps into something useful, Vikings! 🪵🔨

🙌 FELLOWSHIP OF CHRISTIAN STUDENTS
Today, Neal Marshall challenged our students with an important message: “Delayed obedience is still disobedience.”
📖 1 Timothy 4:12 reminds us:
“Don’t let anyone look down on you because you are young, but set an example for the believers…”
Being a teenager comes with plenty of choices—when to speak up, who to listen to, what to post, how to treat others, and whether to do what we know is right even when nobody is watching.
Sometimes we think, “I’ll do it later.”
“I know I should, but not right now.”
“I’ll make that change eventually.”
But God calls us to act on what we know is right—not just when it is convenient.
💡 Your age is not an excuse to wait. Your youth is an opportunity to lead.
You can be an example TODAY—in the classroom, on the field, in the hallway, online, and with your friends.
Thank you, Neal Marshall, for challenging our students to think about what it means to live out their faith through their choices. 💚
Don’t wait to be the person God is calling you to be. Be that person today!

💚 North Stokes Spotlight: Mandee Bennett — 30 Years of Teaching, Coaching & Viking Pride 🦅
Mandee Bennett is happily married to her high school sweetheart, Eric Bennett, and together they have two wonderful children. Their son, Bryson, is in his senior year at UNC Chapel Hill, while their son Braydon is in his senior year at North Stokes. These three men keep Mandee on her toes every day, and she knows she could not do what she does without them.
Mandee lives on a farm filled with chickens, goats, cows, dogs, cats, and a horse. Her family also raises 40 acres of tobacco each year, so she says that “rest” is not really in her vocabulary. Leaving work each day simply means another adventure is waiting for her on the farm!
She feels incredibly blessed to live in such a wonderful community—one where she can hear the crickets and see the stars at night. Her community, along with the love and support of her family, has helped keep her going through the years. Mandee is a member of Stoney Ridge Baptist Church, where she considers the people there nothing short of a true blessing.
Mandee is in her 30th year of teaching, which she still finds hard to believe! She began her teaching career at South Stokes in 1997. After about two and a half years, she was finally able to “come home” to North Stokes, where she has been ever since. She describes North Stokes as a hidden jewel of a place to work and feels incredibly blessed in so many ways to be part of the school community.
For the past 15 years, Mandee has supported the Fellowship of Christian Students. One of the most rewarding parts of that experience has been watching young people grow in their faith.
Mandee is also celebrating her 30th year of coaching. Over the years, she has coached many teams and athletes, but this year she feels especially lucky to coach this wonderful group of young ladies in tennis.
Mandee believes the Lord knew exactly what He was doing when He led her to North Stokes. In her final year of teaching, she feels especially blessed to have great people to work with, wonderful people she can call family, supportive parents, and an amazing group of young ladies to coach.
Adding to the blessing, Mandee is getting to coach alongside her childhood friend, Tiffany Cone, as well as one of her favorite coaches of all time, Mr. “Mac” McKenzie.
GOD IS SO GOOD! 💚💚

The North Stokes Library is becoming a place to read, relax, connect, and have a little fun! 💚
Today, students took a break from the hustle and bustle of the school day to enjoy some friendly competition, work on puzzles, and spend time in a space designed just for them. 🧩🎲📖
Whether you're looking for your next great book, want to challenge a friend to a game, or just need a quiet place to unwind, there’s always something happening in the library!
And yes… sometimes you may even find students getting very serious about a puzzle. 😂🧩
Come on in, Vikings! Your library is YOUR space! 💚📚
