Dear Noble Families,
Greetings! I hope that you are having a good week, and have had a chance to do some coding activities during this Hour of Code at Noble week. The event lasts until December 13. Check out the
Thanks to Mrs. Rebecca Powers and Mrs. Camille Necas, our hardworking and innovative media staff, you are now able to check out books from the Noble Media Center. Reading daily is so important for enjoyment and success in life, and we hope that this will allow your students to have access to books every day. Use this Library Book Check Out Form, and check below for more information.
We are very fortunate that Robbinsdale Area Schools is able to offer free meal bundles to all families until the end of the school year. Still, we are asking families to please fill out
an Educational/Meal Benefits Application if you have received meal benefits in the past, or if you believe you might qualify. The applications help to provide funding to Noble and the Robbinsdale district for support with instruction, nutrition, and other resources. The deadline to apply is December 15.
I wish you good health as we move through December!
Sincerely,
Principal Michael Rieckenberg

Please complete an Educational/Meals Benefits Application if you have not done so this year. Families who qualify receive the direct benefits of free breakfast and lunch, as well as reduced fees for some activities and resources. Although meals are free to all students for this school year, the educational/meals benefits applications are needed to receive state and federal funds that are given to each school to support students who need additional resources.

During Distance Learning PLUS, families can pick up the 7-day meal bundles from one of the meal distribution sites listed below (NOTE: Neill has replaced Sandburg as a meal pick up site). Simply park your vehicle, put on a face covering and walk up to the door with signage.
