Rose Hill-Magnolia Elementary’s Bright Spot for 2025 is the school’s band program. The band currently has 64 students. Mr. Arp, Band Director, has received numerous grants to build the program from virtually the ground up in the past three years. Most recently, the band performed for the first time at SEDBA Music Performance Assessment, and 8th grader Anthony Vasquez became the first RHM student to perform at Honor Band, both held at UNC Pembroke.

Mr. Arp is immensely proud of his students, saying, “Our band students are hard-working, dedicated problem solvers who continue to show that they’re up to the task of being musicians.  I have nothing but pride for my students, and I look forward to celebrating the accomplishments they will continue to achieve.” 
 

At Duplin County Schools, I get to go to school and do my best. My teacher helps me learn and be great. I enjoy learning in a loving, supportive place and being with my friends. My school is special because it is caring and safe. I love my teacher because she makes me feel happy and keeps me safe while I learn.

Wallace Rose Hill fosters a dynamic learning environment by offering diverse courses, clubs, and opportunities that cater to students’ individual needs. This helps students discover their passions, develop skills, and achieve success. Duplin County Schools (DCS) stands out with its Pathway with Purpose approach, driven by STEAMA, which supports the unique needs of all students. This allows me to integrate STEAMA into my classroom, providing students with hands-on learning experiences. I offer students opportunities to explore curiosity through collaborative discussions, hands-on activities, and interactive projects, encouraging critical thinking, problem-solving, and teamwork to enhance their learning.

Duplin County Schools offer endless opportunities that will help prepare me for my future. I am a member of several clubs, including BETA, Teacher Ambassador, and the Peer-to-Peer Group. These clubs are beneficial because interacting with others enhances my problem-solving and critical-thinking skills. I enjoy studying Math and spending time with my friends at Warsaw Elementary. What makes Warsaw Elementary special to me is the sense of safety I feel here, something I didn’t experience at other schools. I am also grateful for the many extracurricular activities offered, which make my school experience enjoyable.
