Greetings NCA Families,
This week was marked by a few firsts for our school, and first for our Middle School in particular. Last Saturday, the PTC led the first-ever Middle School dance for our scholars, and it was well received by scholars and staff. This week, we also learned that three of our 8th grade scholars were selected to the All-State Choir. To have all three scholars selected to the most prestigious ensemble choir is remarkable. The three scholars will be performing at the state ensemble concert in January. Congratulations to PTC for organizing a memorable experience for our scholars with the dance. And, special thanks to Ms. Batista for preparing our middle school scholars to achieve all-state choir recognition.
Today’s PTC event, Doughnuts with Dad, was special. It was great to see the cafeteria filled with scholars and their fathers starting the day together for breakfast.
The next two weeks prior to Thanksgiving break are loaded with activities for parents to join us on campus. Please see these special events, noted below:
Veteran’s Day Presentation – Tuesday, November 11th (1:45 – 2:45)
We are excited to celebrate the dedication and personal sacrifice of our community members that served proudly in our United States Armed Forces. Mrs. Roth is organizing this program, and she has collected information from all families that submitted short bios for this event.
Special Note #1: Family members that are being recognized during the presentation, please plan to arrive to the NCA cafeteria by 1:40 PM, to take your place in the reserved seating area.
Special Note #2: Due to the timeframe in which this event takes place, and the volume of scholars and parents attending, all scholars will be sent back to their classrooms following the presentation. We cannot release scholars to parents prior to the 3:00 PM standard dismissal time.
Poetry & Prose Performances: 11/10 – 11/14
Monday, November 10th: Kindergarten & First Grade, 8:15 AM
