NNCS Flyer Update

This week Middle Schoolers played "What's In The Bag", a team scavenger hunt, for their Green and Gold Challenge. As you can see teams had a great time with this event on Friday!

Dear Flyer Community:

As you will see we have had an incredibly busy week at school! I hope you enjoy all the photos and stories submitted this week by teachers, coaches, administrators, and students.

Below you will find two videos for your review:

Project Footage and Sentiments: This video shares footage and perspectives from our staff and students regarding the proposed project.
Public Hearing Presentation: This is a voice-over recording of the slides shared at the September 30 Public Hearing, in case you were unable to attend. This video details the rationale for the project, the steps taken to bring this project to the voters, how the project will be funded with no further tax impact to the community, and the tentative project timeline.

We hope to see you at the polls!

Have a fantastic Fall weekend!

Brooke Ashley

Superintendent
