I-MTSS LAUNCH AT NBMS: I-MTSS LAUNCH AT NBMS:

Week Seven Parent Focus - What Parents Can Expect from iMTSS Week Seven Parent Focus - What Parents Can Expect from iMTSS

As part of NBMS iMTSS, students will be enrolled in a tiered support course during 3rd and/or 8th period at the beginning of each marking period based on their individual needs, with opportunities ranging from targeted interventions to enrichment. For Marking Period 2, supports will focus on math, reading, writing, behavior, attendance, and social-emotional learning, with additional supports added throughout the year as student data and needs are identified. Tier placements will be reviewed each marking period; however, students who continue to benefit from the same support may remain in that tier or course for an extended period. Parents are encouraged to log into Home Access Center (HAC) each quarter to view their child's assigned iMTSS support and may contact a building administrator by email with questions about the specific support their child is receiving.

NBMS STAFF SPOTLIGHT for October: NBMS STAFF SPOTLIGHT for October:

The Lincoln Center is now in Room 1! (near the Gym) The Lincoln Center is now in Room 1! (near the Gym)

NBMS is excited to welcome The Lincoln Center for Family and Youth (TLC) as a new program within our school, providing a small, supportive learning environment focused on the whole student. Through personalized academic support, social-emotional wellness, leadership and life-readiness development, and an emphasis on connection and belonging, TLC will provide participating students with additional opportunities to grow academically, socially, and personally. We are excited about this partnership and the additional layer of support it brings to our NBMS school community.

Cell Phones, Ear buds, Smart Watches, & Smart Glasses

Students and Families are reminded that student-cell-phone use inside of NBMS is prohibited. This rule also prohibits unauthorized videos, pictures, social media posts, text messaging, and calls, when made by students during school hours. All grade-levels will be informed of this expectation on the first day of school in the Auditorium.


NBMS Admin no longer issues warnings for cell phone usage.

Moving forward, cell phone infractions will lead to the following disciplinary steps at NBMS:

  1. Teacher contacts parent(s) and issues a detention.
  2. Dean contacts parent(s), issues a detention, and requires student to leave cell phone at home.
  3. Dean contacts parent(s) and issues a detention. Admin has student turn in cell phone to main office. Student can pick up cell phone at 2pm to take home.
  4. Admin contacts parent(s), issues ISS, and has student turn in cell phone to main office. Parent(s) may schedule a time to pick up cell phone and conference with Admin.


Failure to serve a detention results in ISS. Failure to serve ISS results in OSS.

All students must be accompanied by an adult when attending sporting events.

This policy is in place to ensure student safety.


Immediately following the conclusion of each sporting event, all spectators—including students—are required to depart from school property promptly. It is not safe for students to wait outside for transportation. We strongly encourage families to plan for students to depart from North Campus with a parent, guardian, or supervising adult immediately after games.
