Dear NCS Families,

April showers bring May flowers. The March reading kites are giving way to oodles of poetry. This month’s challenge is a writing challenge as April is National Poetry Month. 

A few questions arose this week regarding local schools and COVID. Rest assured, if NCS had to notify a class, or the entire school, we would be doing so. I take the safety of all students and staff very seriously.  Thanks to the CDC and HIPPA, we have guidelines to rely upon. We have an excellent emergency plan that we will use if we need it, however, with your help we may be able to make it through June 11th: 

• Keep students home that are sick

• Notify Nurse Kayla if you have concerns

• Be very, very careful over spring break

• Continue to wear masks; social distance

• Above all, call the school and ask if you have a question

Although it’s a modified season, we are having softball, baseball and archery, thanks to Mrs. York.  It was so much fun on Monday to stick my head out the door and see our junior high athletes practicing. Please remember that COVID rules all still apply. Only students and staff are allowed in the building. On practice days, please line up in the circle and wait for students to be dismissed. When we do have games, masks must be worn and social distance must be adhered to. 

Please, please everyone do you part so we can continue to have in-person learning at NCS.  Have an amazing weekend!    --Ms. Sperry
