Northam Elementary students enjoyed a special visit from Nogales High School's Noble Regiment.

Northam Knights and Nobles Celebrate

The Nogales High School Noble Regiment helped kick off Northam Elementary's first "Way of the Knight" Student Assembly. During this recognition, students that demonstrate PBIS school-wide behaviors receive an award in front of the entire school community, including families.


"Many of our Northam students were inspired by the showcasing of our talented high school students and I hope they follow in their footsteps," said Northam Principal Karen Magana.


At the end of the assembly Northam students enjoyed meeting the high school students and were able to hold musical instruments and even spin some color guard flags!


"We absolutely LOVE community events -- building relationships are what we are all about and we look forward to our students interacting in various ways with our community," said Noble Band Regiment Director Jennifer Trujillo.

Noble Color Guard and Regiment have sweet treats (and hats!) from Northam and Krispy Kreme.
