Nexton has some naughty elves!!! They are causing a ruckus around Nexton Elementary.... Talk to your students today about the chaos they have caused.

Nexton Elementary Beta Club in conjunction with community members in the Moncks Corner area are spreading cheer by providing 30 blankets to be distributed to nursing home residents in St. Stephens. It is an-honor to purchase and provide these to the home. Be on the lookout for other ways you can help Beta Club support our local communities, including a pop can tab drive starting in January. And don’t forget to send in your "free of holes and receipts" plastic bags to place in the bin in the front foyer. These bags are collected and sent off to Holy City Missions to assist their food bank and shelter.

Here they are!..... The Bus, Dismissal, and Arrival ticket winners!!!! These students were in our drawing to receive a treat from administration for being so AWESOME!!!! Congratulations... Keep It Up!!! Go Explorers
