NMS Family Newsletter

This year D2 will implement our Standard Response Protocol (SRP) from the "I love U Guys" foundation. Information on the SRP for parents can be found HERE

Additionally, Dr. Lind shared this letter with the district further explaining the switch both districts are making.

We look forward to sharing the SRP and working with first responders and the community to develop a consistent message that everyone understands.

At NMS, we believe in providing students with opportunities to grow and demonstrate their learning. To support this, we have established the following test retake policy. In order to qualify for a retake, students must:

• Complete and submit all assignments related to the material
• Complete the study guide
• Meet with their teacher to review areas for improvement and to discuss what they have learned prior to taking the retake
• Retakes must be completed within two weeks of the original test date.

This policy encourages responsibility, accountability, and mastery of learning while giving students a structured path to success.

Please talk to your children about the seriousness of making threatening comments regarding students, staff, or the school. No comments will be handled as a joke here at Nippersink Middle School and law enforcement will be contacted if comments are made or shared on social media. Please contact the office or use our website if you have a safety concern. Safety concerns can be submitted on the website HERE
