Take me out to the ballgame!?!

Hello! Just wondering, have you observed any cases of spring fever?  Here's a picture of kids getting ready for "spring" sports. Oh, my! Regardless of the ground conditions, we hope you're enjoying the April break. We'll be off and running with some traditional April/May activities when we return to school next week.

Signs of Spring:

• First Baseball/Softball away games, scheduled for Tuesday, April 24 and Thursday, April 26. GO LIONS!  Also, some of our students will participate in their first track meet on Wednesday, April 25. As always, check the NCS family calendar for updated sports info.
• Friday April 27 Final Chess Club Celebration--yes, you've read that correctly--Friday (not Thursday).
• Also on Friday, April 27:  FREE FAMILY FUN NIGHT for all NCS families at the newly renovated YMCA. The fun begins at 5:30 pm.  Children must be accompanied by an adult.  (See recent blog for details.)
• In less than two weeks:  NPTO buy-on-get-one-free book fair in the library.
• Thursday, May 3 NCS SPRING ARTS FESTIVAL/CONCERT.

After that, the school year zooms along with Grade 8 attending Kieve, Grade 6 to Hurricane Island, spring sports, Kindergarten registration. Please note the change that has been made to the AOS 93 school calendar: There IS SCHOOL for EVERYONE on Friday, May 25 (staff workshop day postponed to the end of the year). 

Note to kindergarten families: No school for Mrs. Stewart's class on Thursday, May 31 and Friday, June 1 (registration/screening for the 2018-2019 K class).

Enjoy the rest of your vacation break. In the meantime, we'll be doing our best to be ready for the coming season at NCS. . .
