IMPORTANT INFORMATION TO ALL PARENTS!
Dear Parents and Guardians,
It is the time of year when we begin planning for the upcoming 2026–2027 school year at North East Carolina Prep School. The first part of this process involves gathering information from our current families.
We are requesting that all parents complete an Intent to Enroll form for their student(s) for the 2026–2027 school year. The Intent to Enroll window will be open from January 22, 2026 through February 6, 2026.
This information is extremely important, as it allows us to plan our budget, hire appropriate staffing, and determine how many new students we are able to accept at each grade level. Due to the high volume of interest received thus far, timely responses are critical.
Please note that failure to submit the Intent to Enroll form by February 6, 2026 will result in forfeiture of your child’s seat for the 2026–2027 school year, and your child will be placed into the lottery process with all new enrollments.
Please be prepared to assist families who may have questions after the message is sent.
Thank you.
Duck Grams are going to delivered on Feb. 12- Feb. 13 is a Teacher Workday! See below...

Students and staff practiced procedures put in place by administration and the NECP Safety Committee that ensured a safe and seamless mock evacuation of our campus.
