Bed bug complaints infest school board

Concerned residents confronted the Duplin County Board of Education at the Nov. 5 meeting about bed bugs being found recently at Kenansville Elementary School. Three individuals signed up for public comment to address the board on the topic. Marissa Phipps had several items to address. She started off by stating that she was both nervous and angry as she began addressing the board with her concerns. “This is a big immediate concern. We cannot keep asking our children and staff to report to work to risk bringing it home to our environment and spreading it worse,” she said. “Why not let us go remote, do it for a week, and come back to a clean environment? Yes, we cannot stop it from happening again, but we can stop it from spreading.” She also brought up bullying in schools, stating that it was a major issue. “If you look at the suicide rates in Duplin County, it’s the highest because bullying has not been handled,” she asserted. “Instead it’s being brushed to the side — saying to a child that’s not nice or handing out a stay away agreement. When a child is stuck in a classroom with 30 other kids

Wallace-Rose Hill trounces Trinity

WALLACE — Beaten, bruised, banged up. This is not the time to play Wallace-Rose Hill on the gridiron. Hungry to keep the “nay-sayers” silent and continue a tradition established by the late — and legendary — Jack Holley, the Bulldogs looked like a different team last Thursday evening. They felt better about themselves, too. Wallace-Rose Hill ran over Trinity, 68-0, in round one of the NC High School Athletic Association Class 3A football playoffs. The Bulldogs (6-4 overall) continue play Friday at Northeastern Coastal member Pasquotank County. The Bulldogs claimed the program’s 91st postseason win. “I felt like that was the best we’ve executed on offense I know in the last three years as far fundamentals and techniques go,” WRH head coach Kevin Motsinger said. “We had to move a lot of people around because we had six or seven kids who couldn’t play due to being banged up [either] in the James Kenan game or practice during the week.” Motsinger employed a unique practice plan. The Bulldogs worked out Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday in full gear. Throughout the season, they’ve struggled to get out of the huddle and snap the ball on time. If a player jumped offsides, the
