March 16-21: Can you believe March is half over?

Things you'll want to know about this week:

Band students will attend the AOS 93 Music Festival on Monday, March 16.   The bus leaves NCS in the morning and out students spend the day immersed in music with other AOS 93 band members. That evening, the entire group will give a performance at Lincoln Academy 7 pm. This is a wonderful experience for band members. The 7pm evening concert is ALWAYS special.

It's our last week with Dave and Zoe in residence.  (Zoe is pictured above, looking back.) Students in grade 7 (pictured here performing a team building activity) will have another chance to connect with Dave and Zoe when they attend the Leadership School at Kieve in May.

This is the last week for Kieve After School Activities. Each group--Gr. 1-3, Gr. 4-6, Gr. 7-8--will have one more after school event. (Please note, Monday's after school activity for grades 4-6 is cancelled, but they will meet on Wednesday, March 18.)  GRADES 1-3 (sign-up) are Tuesday, GRADES 4-6 (sign up) are Wednesday, and GRADES 7-8 (sign-up) are Thursday.  We sincerely appreciate Dave and Zoe's presence in our school and are thankful for their commitment to NCS during the winter months.   

On Thursday morning a jump rope club for interested Grade 4-8th grade students will begin. The jump rope program will be 7:30-8:00 AM on Thursdays. More information is on the signup sheet or contact myork@aos93.org.  Sign-up here:  Grade 4-8 JUMP ROPE

If you haven't had a chance to respond to the annual parent survey, please take a moment to give us your feedback:  2015 PARENT SURVEY   It is very helpful for us to have your reflections about your family's experience at NCS.  Thank you!

This week will wrap up with Nobleboro's Town Meeting on Saturday. The annual public meeting is at 10 am in the NCS gym. All town residents are welcome to attend. Special thanks to the 8th grade (and families!) for planning and offering refreshments to our community.
