Dear NHS Community,
Please remember that today, Sept. 15th, is an early release day with a 12:00 dismissal. There is no PM Preschool class today.
Please see the message from NHS PAL:
Welcome back to NHS for the 2021/22 school year! North Hampton School PTO, called PAL (People Active in Learning) is our school community organization. Together, parents, school staff, and interested community members support and enrich the learning environment at NHS. PAL reaches out to new families, coordinates volunteer placements, raises funds for student enrichment, provides a forum for communication and plans social events for the school and community.
PAL holds monthly public meetings on the 3rd Thursday of each month from 6-7pm. Please join us for our first meeting of the school year this Thursday, September 16th in the school cafeteria. Masks are required to enter the building. We plan to discuss:
Budget Updates
Fundraising Goals
Fall Events
Spirit Wear Drive
We look forward to what this year will bring and hope you join us on Thursday! If you are interested in volunteering (big or small) and can not attend a meeting, please email us at info@nhspal.com.
