The Sixth Grade "House Book Challenge" is Officially Underway!

This year, each term, our sixth-grade classes (each class named its own "house") will compete to see which can claim the title of House Page Turner Champions by reading the most “Just Right” books. Students are encouraged to read daily for 20 minutes, practicing skills and strategies taught in the classroom. Once a book is completed, students will submit a brief review and a spine slip to contribute to our ever-growing wall bookshelf display. Below, Mrs. Tominsky posts the most recent spines turned in by student readers on Friday, October 25. 😃

At the end of each term, the house with the highest number of books read will earn the champion title and a special prize!

Let the pages turn and the challenge begin—happy reading to all!

🗓 Important Information for Any Student Staying After School & Late Bus Details!

Students who remain after school must be with a school-related activity (club or sports), or meeting with a teacher. Students are not permitted to loiter on school grounds after dismissal. The district offers a late bus to students on Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday which departs from the rear parking lot at 2:55 p.m. sharp. Any student looking to utilize the late bus must be aware of two important details:

• The late bus does NOT follow routes of the morning or afternoon buses that bring students to and from school. Check HERE for the list of stops the late bus follows; and

• ALL students riding the late bus must obtain a pass from the teacher with whom they stayed after school. Students will not be permitted on the late bus without a valid pass from the teacher the student was with after school.

😃 Get involved! Join a Club or Activity!

NMS offers several ways for students to get involved beyond the school day. Students should listen for morning announcements, read The Friday Memo, and watch the lobby whiteboard and monitor for announcements regarding club start dates, directions for joining, and when the club runs. Clubs meet right after school until the late bus
