Welcome Back!

There is something special about the end of summer and the start of a new school year because no matter what the previous year was like, there comes a sense of renewal, a fresh start. The beginning of the year is about new students, new teachers, new classrooms, seeing old friends and making new friends. There is an air of excitement and hope.   

The summer was busy: NSES has a beautiful new library renovation. At NSMS most of the classrooms were repainted and we have new furniture in the cafeteria and in the 5th grade classrooms. At NSHS we began phase one of replacing the original hallway floor tiles, repainted the library, and had the majority of its old windows replaced with windows that are not only more energy efficient, but also each classroom has a special safety window for emergency egress. 

A special thank you to our custodial, maintenance, and technology staff for their always hard, and ambitious work during the summer to prepare for the return of teachers and students. 

Along with our excellent educators, we also added this year new members of staff dedicated to expanding student social-emotional support and academic interventions. 

The schools are ready, classrooms are prepared, and we look forward to seeing the students return!
