NMS Game Day

After some days of completing the NWEA assessment, all students at Norwich Middle School participated in a Non-Electronic Game Day activity. Students had a great time connecting with each other, having fun, and making connections with each other. It was a little celebration of the extraordinary hard work our kids have done!!!

8th Grade Trip to DCMO BOCES

School Counselors, Mr. Bennett and Mrs. van der Sommen are excited to share that our 8th grade students will be attending a DCMO BOCES Career Exploration field trip on February 15th during the school day.

During the visit, students will rotate to all Career and Technical Education (CTE) programs, learn more about the courses, as well as local and regional career opportunities. This field trip is a great way for students to continue to take a deeper dive into career investigations.

Students are encouraged to return alongside their family members to attend their Career Night event scheduled for Thursday, March 2, 2023
