Dear NES Families,

Welcome back and Happy New Year! We have been so excited to see the happy faces of our students returning to school.

A few reminders:

• Drop off begins as early as 7:30AM. The tardy bell rings at 8:10AM. Students must be IN CLASS by that time. Please make sure you have your student in the gate, and out of the car prior to 8:10AM each morning.
• Dismissal begins at 2:50PM and ends at 3:15PM. All students should be picked up by that time unless they attend aftercare.
• In the parent pick up line, please stay in your vehicle until your child gets to you. Parents should not be walking in the parent pick up line.
• Please make sure to get in line on the correct side according to how your student gets in the vehicle. All students should be entering their vehicles from the center line and should not walk around the vehicle to the other side.
• Checkouts and changes to transportation end at 2:30PM. The front parking lot is reopened to visitors at 3:15PM due to bus dismissal.
• We are seeing our colder weather beginning. Please make sure your child is dressed appropriately each day for outdoor activities such as PE/Recess.

We hope everyone has a wonderful weekend and we will see students back on Monday!

GOOOOO TIGERS!!!

Warm regards,

Mrs. Jessica Lowe, Principal

Mrs. Heather Briney, Assistant Principal
