Dear NES Families,


Student had a blast celebrating the 100th day of school! Thank you for entrusting your students with us for 100 days of learning.


Please make sure you have reached out to your child's teacher to schedule your individual APTT meeting next week. We look forward to seeing parents and getting to share your student's progress so far this year!


For those who received the confirmation notice, tutoring begins Tuesday, February 4th. Tutoring will be every Tuesday and Thursday from 3:15 - 4:15PM (on school days) until April 29th. If students are signed up and unable to attend more than 3 sessions, we will have to offer their spot to another student. Please make sure you have made arrangements for someone to pick up your student at 4:15PM. We do have a waiting list for some of the grade levels. Please feel free to continue to send in permission slips if interested and we will add you to the waiting list.


Attendance Matters! We are watching attendance very closely and would love to see all students here by 8:05AM in order to be in class before the tardy bell. We will be giving shout outs to the classes with the BEST attendance all week!


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
