What happened to May?

The month of May:  Zoom!  (Don't blink!) For some people May is black fly season, for others it's a time to delight in the many shades of green--grass, budding nature, grass-stained knees--a welcomed change after mud season in Maine.   

Here are some school-related things to be aware of as May wraps up and we look ahead to June at NCS:

• No school for students on FRIDAY, MAY 26:  Staff Development Day
• No school MONDAY, MAY 29:  Observance of Memorial Day
• Softball/baseball/track continue. See the NCS FAMILY CALENDAR for game dates/times.  GO LIONS!
• Grade 6 leaves for a learning adventure at Hurricane Island, WEDNESDAY-FRIDAY, MAY 31-JUNE 2
• FRIDAY, JUNE 2:  8th grade outing club trip
• FRIDAY, JUNE 2:  Grades 2 & 3 play production, Good Manners

Also, in the coming weeks grades 6-8 will participate in Field Day at Lincoln Academy, grade 5 will celebrate D.A.R.E. by taking in a Sea Dogs game, some classes will make trips to the Historical Society, and 8th grade will participate in their own end of the year activities.  Keep an eye on the NCS FAMILY CALENDAR for June events.  

Enjoy the long Memorial Day weekend!  

The greatest glory of a free born people is to transmit that freedom to their children.
