Traditions!


A favorite tradition during the autumn season is our Thanksgiving dinner. The NCS Community Thanksgiving Celebration may be a new experience for some younger families. We're pleased to be able to invite families of our K-4 students to join us for a special meal. 

This year's menu includes turkey, stuffing, vegetables, squash and potatoes from Spears Farm, whole grain dinner rolls, cranberry or apple sauce. Families donate the desserts or cider. You may drop desserts off this afternoon or before school on Friday (if possible).

Part of the fun and excitement of planning a special event actually happens with the preparation. Students have created beautiful seasonal table decorations, the 8th grade class helps with set up, still others will be serving our guests. This cooperative effort all comes together right before K-4 families arrive! 

Another tradition that comes soon after Thanksgiving Break (11/22-11/24) is the Winter Arts Festival/Concert to be held on Thursday, December 14 at 6:15 pm. All students in grades K-5 participate along with Jr. and Sr. Bands and Sr. Chorus. 

The NPTO Book Fair will be open before/after school during the same week, December 11-15 (including Thursday evening).  Summer readers, your book bucks are worth cash at the book fair! 

Basketball season is upon us! The first game is a home game vs. St. George on Monday, Nov. 27 at 3:45 (boys play first that day). Game information appears on the NCS FAMILY CALENDAR. This calendar is updated regularly to keep you informed about scheduled/rescheduled games and practices.  GO LIONS!
