PRINCIPAL GREETING
Dear Parents and Guardians,
We had a great and busy week of testing, activities and speakers this week. Our students really made us proud! Testing students were focused and working hard. Students in our assemblies were respectful and focused, asking and answering questions of the presenters and being attentive. Students completed activities and attended classes.
As we wind down the school near, the next three weeks will be filled with awards ceremonies, playoff sports games, concerts and performances (great job last night by our band!) and more. Please remind your students to check their Northern Burlington email address and their google classroom for important updates.
Dr. McCann

Pre Prom Mock Crash Assembly- 5/26- Seniors
On Tuesday May 26th, seniors will report to the assembly on the access road between the middle school and Mansfield Elementary school immediately following opportunity period (11:38am).
Two “crashed” cars will be placed there with student actors and actresses used to simulate the victims in an actual crash scene.
Emergency vehicles, including police, fire, EMS, and medical helicopter will respond to the “crash” .
Officer Buck will narrate the details of the scene.
After the outside portion of the assembly is complete, seniors will return inside and have a debrief assembly in the auditorium.
This event is meant to simulate a real crash scene. Therefore, there may be some facets of the event that are triggering for some students. Our counseling team will be in attendance to support any students who need it.

Class of 2027 Families
Senior Trip will be here before we know it! This year’s trip to Disney World costs about $2000. In order to help lighten the load of the scheduled payments beginning next September, we are allowing you the opportunity to make pre-payments now through August 2026. Pre-payments in any amount can be made at any time via cash, check (payable to “NBC Class of 2027”), or now credit card and will go towards your trip balance. Any pre-payments will come off your final scheduled payments next year. Any student wishing to go on the trip will still be required to make the first payment in September, no matter how much they have prepaid. If you make pre-payments and your student decides not to go, we can give you a full refund in September. If your student
decides not to go on the trip after September, they may only receive a partial refund. Cash and check payments can be brought to Mrs. Duff in room 406. Credit card payments can be made online by clicking the button below.
