Let the good times roll

Let's keep the fun going! We had such a blast at our Welcome Back Night. It was wonderful to connect with all of our families, and the school felt so alive!

To maintain this positivity, please mark your calendars for Spirit Week and the PTA Walk and Roll. Spirit Week will be from Oct. 7-11, and the Walk and Roll will take place on Oct. 9.

Oct. 7 - Mismatch Monday, come up with your wackiest outfit

Oct. 8 - Crazy Hat Day, wear your favorite or craziest hat 

Oct. 9 - Purple Pride, wear your NSES gear or purple 

Oct. 10 - Twin Day, wear a matching outfit

Oct. 11 - PJ Day, wear your comfy clothes

Thank you for your continued support in creating a vibrant school community!


Nice neighbors

Thank you for all your support with our morning drop-off. I would also like to ask for your support during afternoon pick-up. It is a busy time, and we want to ensure all of our students and families get home safely.

If you are driving to pick up your child, please do not double park in front of the school or around the streets surrounding the school. This creates an unsafe situation, as other cars are unable to pass. Additionally, it negatively impacts our neighboring homes because their driveways are being blocked, making it difficult for them to access their properties.

Your cooperation is greatly appreciated as we work together to keep our community safe. Thank you!
