NBMS STAFF SPOTLIGHT for October:
The Lincoln Center is now in Room 1! (near the Gym)
NBMS is excited to welcome The Lincoln Center for Family and Youth (TLC) as a new program within our school, providing a small, supportive learning environment focused on the whole student. Through personalized academic support, social-emotional wellness, leadership and life-readiness development, and an emphasis on connection and belonging, TLC will provide participating students with additional opportunities to grow academically, socially, and personally. We are excited about this partnership and the additional layer of support it brings to our NBMS school community.
