Things we love about September . . .

 

What do we love about this time of year?   The weather (well, most days) and fall sports are just two things to enjoy during September.   

The NCS LIONS played their first soccer games this week:

• We had a 5-3 WIN against an impressive South Bristol team on Tuesday. Lilly and Logan defended our goal. Goals were scored by Josh, Jacob and Gage. It was our first game, so we learned a lot about what we need to work on, but the kids had fun and it was exciting! 
  
  
• Thursday afternoon our team was defeated by Bristol 4-1, but it was also a great game.  Harris and Logan took turns in the goal, and we had many impressive stops. Jacob scored our only goal with a long shot from the outside corner. 

Next week the soccer team will play at Jefferson on Tuesday, and we're back home vs. Hope on Wednesday.   GO LIONS!

Lions gear will be available through an online store this year. NCS will offer a window for each time the store is "open."  Right now, the store window is open until October 2.  After that date, the live link will close and all orders will be filled. We can open it up later in the school year and possibly one more time before the holidays. The school store link>>>> https://nobleboroschool.itemorder.com/sale

Welcome back to NCS!

It's a pleasure to be back at school together! We are busy getting to know new students and new staff as well as reconnecting with the rest of our school community.

School meals are free to all students in 2021-2022. Students may pick up a breakfast on the way in to school in the morning, and the lunch routine has been established within classrooms. Your child may get a meal on any school day.  A menu appears on our website under "parent resources" LUNCH MENU

The morning drop off and afternoon dismissal is settling into a routine. A message regarding the morning drop-off: Once within the front circle, please pull ahead in the line before your child gets out of your vehicle. For safety, we ask that students get out of vehicles once you are in the area between Mr. Michaud and the flagpole.

Thank you to everyone--students, families and staff--for helping to make this year start off smoothly.
