CHANGE 4 CHANGE (Sixth Grade Service Project)

Hello,

We are 6th graders at Nobleboro Central School. We have been studying about people in Africa in difficult circumstances. We learned that some people are not as fortunate as us. We can help by raising money to provide animals for African people who need them to survive. We are collecting money from now until December 12th. If you would like to donate, we will have a jar available at the Thanksgiving lunch. 

Thank you for helping us with this important service project!

WINTER CONCERT: THURSDAY, DEC. 11 at 6:30 pm

It’s time to put the NCS Winter Concert on your calendar. All students in grades K-5 will perform in this concert, as well as Jr. Band, Sr. Band, and Sr. Chorus.  Students work hard on concert music for months and look forward to sharing their music with family and friends.

All students (except band members) should meet in their classrooms at 6:15. Band students should arrive at school at 6pm and meet in the music room.

Reminder: Both bands and Sr. Chorus have a special dress code as described in the band and chorus handbook. Ms. Preston encourages students to consider this concert as a "dress-up" event.

Happy Thanksgiving--Don't miss this!

It's hard to believe that we are are this far into November, but here we are making plans for the NCS Thanksgiving Meal to be held Friday, November 21 at 11:30.   Students in grades K-Grade 4 are encouraged to invite family member(s).   If you cannot attend, perhaps a grandparent would like to join your child(ren) for this festive meal. 

Invitations have gone out to all K-Gr. 4 families.   We hope you've had a chance to respond.   If you have not told us that you are (or are not) coming, would you please let the school know?   Here is a link to do that:  THANKSGIVING FEAST INVITATION/INFORMATION/RSVP.

We ask that families with students in Kindergarten through Grade 2, please arrive by 11:25. You will be given an opportunity to go to the classroom to pick up your child(ren).   Students in grades 3 & 4 will meet you in the lobby at 11:30.

Eighth grade students WILL help prepare for our guests.  Others will be serving you.   Grades 5-7 students will be eating together as 3 big happy families.   (Of course, if you have been invited to attend the dinner with a K-4 child and your 5-7th grade student would like to eat with you, that's okay too.)

Guests may donate cider, water or a dessert toward the meal.  We provide the rest.  Please deliver your donated item to school on Thursday, November 20th or at the start of school on Friday, November 21.   You can leave them at the office.

SPECIAL PROJECT THIS YEAR: Mrs. Sabina's 6th grade class is working on a service project through World Vision.  (Read on!)   Sixth grade students will set up a display in the lobby and we will be thankful to anyone interested in donating to this great cause.  (No pressure!)

PICTURE SCHOOL PHOTO RETAKES

Picture retakes are Friday, November 14.   If you are interested in retakes, be sure that your child brings the Lifetouch package that you recently received to school on Friday morning. Your child will turn it in to the photographer at retake time.  The photographer will process the same package that you paid for earlier this fall.

If you missed Picture Day, please click on this LIFETOUCH PACKAGE LINK to view packages and send the information to school with a check.

Nobleboro Chess Club

The NCS Chess Club will have its first meeting on Wednesday, November 12th.   The meeting will be held in Mr. Parcher's classroom at 2:40.   This first meeting will last about 20 minutes.   Please make necessary transportation arrangements if you plan to attend.

If you have never played chess before or are a future Grand Master, all 3-8th grade students are invited to join Chess Club.   Please enter your name on the Sign-Up sheet located just outside Mr. Parcher's room or let Mr. Parcher know that you would like to participate.   Joining the club will provide a great way to learn the game at all levels.   

At the first meeting, we will set up the Club details for the year.

Later this school year, Nobleboro students will be asked to take an anonymous health survey. The data from this survey is used at the school, county and State levels.  It supports grant funding, assessment of student needs, and the design and evaluation of health related programs.  You will receive more information on this survey closer to the time of survey administration and will have the opportunity to review its contents. You have the choice of whether or not your child will take this survey.  Your child also has the option of whether or not to participate in the survey on the day it is given.
