 Dear Members of the NCS Community:

I am writing to inform you that we have been made aware of a TikTok challenge for today to call in bomb threats, school shooting threats, etc. at schools in the United States.  Our local law enforcement agencies, Lincoln County Sheriff's Department and Damariscotta PD, have been in communication with school administration.  They have informed us that no credible threats have been reported locally or nationally.  The Sheriff's Office is fully prepared to respond in whatever manner is appropriate if a situation were to arise.  Our staff is listening carefully to hear if any of our students are talking about this today in order to reassure them of our safety protocols, as well as remind them of the impact that social media can have.

Social media is a powerful tool often used to influence others, and not always for the good.  It is always important to remain vigilant when it involves these types of threats.  If your child is active on social media, please take time to talk to your child about the influence of social media and the potential consequences of engaging in this type of behavior.

Thank you for being a caring and responsive community, and thank you to the members of our local law enforcement groups for keeping our communities safe.

Sincerely,

Ira Michaud

Principal of Nobleboro Central School

194 Center Street

Nobleboro, ME  04555

Just a few notes and reminders

 

Lifetouch will be here on Friday, 12/17 for retakes. 

• If you are interested in a retake and have purchased a package, you simply need to turn the package in at the time of your child's retake (and make sure your child knows about that). 
• If you missed the first school picture day, please ask us for an order form.  
• If you have a specific question, please contact the school office. 

In case you've been wondering about our last day before the holiday break, NCS will be having a full day of school.  Our last day of school next week is Wednesday, 12/22/21. 

Don't miss the post before this one for our lost and found video. Can you help us? Or, do you recognize these? . . . . 

Do you recognize anything here?

 

First game today!

 

GO LIONS!

Holiday Cheer!

NCS students bring joyful music to staff and residents of Lincoln Home. 

Reminder:  Lifetouch RETAKES are Friday, December 17.
