Dear NES Families,


We were so excited to see many students celebrated in 3rd through 5th grades for their academic success! Thank you to our families for coming to support and cheer on your students.


The Scholastic Book Fair will be at NES next week. The book fair will be open for parents during our parent engagement event on Tuesday, April 1st from 5:30 - 7:00PM. It will be open to parents attending APTT for 2nd, 3rd, and 4th grade this week, and will be open again during our SAC meeting on Thursday, April 3rd from 5:00-6:00PM.


Fourth and Fifth grade students will be taking the FAST Writing Assessment on April 1st. Please make sure they get to bed on time on Monday and arrive before the tardy bell on Tuesday. We want them to feel relaxed and comfortable when they start the assessment so that they can do their best work.


Report Cards will be coming home on Monday, May 31st, please make sure your student shares their report card with you when they get home.


Have a great weekend!!!


GOOOOO TIGERS!!!


Warm regards,

Mrs. Jessica Lowe, Principal

Mrs. Heather Briney, Assistant Principal
