Narragansett Middle School

Happy Friday to everyone in the NMS Community and HAPPY APRIL VACATION!

☀️🥳 All we can say is WOW! Narragansett Middle School had 250+ students and staff after school on April 8th to witness the spectacle of a near-total eclipse! It was a perfect afternoon full of awe and fun as we all gathered on the bleachers to celebrate this magnificent sight. Thank you, thank you, thank you to all the students who came, and to all the staff who stayed to help supervise this celebration!

🎶🎨 Congratulations to all of the artists and musicians who presented a memorable evening on Tuesday, April 9th! The annual Spring Concert and Art Show wows every year and this year did not disappoint! Presenting to a full house, our students showed off their year's worth of efforts, practice, and dedication to making this an impressive show of talent. Thanks to Mrs. Dupuis (NMS Art) and Mr. O’Connor (NMS Music) for leading our resident artists and music students in this great achievement!

🎉 Congratulations go out to the following students for winning the best Logo designs for this year’s  Art Show and Music Concert: 1st Place goes to (shown, below, left to right) Jack Melvin,  2nd Place goes to Giuliana Hendley and  3rd place goes to Brianna Beauregard.  Their awesome designs were printed on our 2024 Art Show and Music Concert Program!

🗓 MCAS CONTINUES in May!  Click here for the Narragansett Middle School MCAS calendar!  Please avoid any unnecessary absences during MCAS and whenever possible, avoid scheduling appointments during testing that will require students to miss classes for make up sessions. Also, please be sure students are supported at home by having them charge their Chromebook fully each night and remember their charger each morning as well. Getting a good night's sleep and eating healthy meals will also make this testing period go more smoothly.

From Nurse McKinnon:

• Friendly reminders from the Health Office…

  • With cold and flu season in full swing, please remind your students to wash hands FREQUENTLY, bring a water bottle THAT SEALS to school, and to NOT touch their face and mouth.

  • For ALL medical absences (COVID, flu, strep, etc.) we require doctors notes to make absences excused

  • Please be mindful of the ill exclusion protocol, which can be found in the handbook. If you have any questions, please reach out to me!

• Field trip season is here!!! If your student requires any emergency medications (such as an Epipen, inhaler, etc.), PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE drop them off to the health office at your earliest convenience (if you have not done so already).

• We now have a Telehealth Cart in the health office, to rule out acute illnesses such as strep throat, ear infections, contagious illnesses, etc.. If the nursing staff deem your student appropriate for a telehealth visit, with your permission, we will get your student seen by our partnering Nurse Practitioner. ANY questions, please contact me.
