Dear NHS Families,
Field Day
Many thanks to our PE teachers Kiel DiPietro and Patrick Guidi for organizing fabulous field day events. Many thanks also to the parents who volunteered their time to facilitate Field Day activities.
T3 Report Cards
Parents will be able to view report cards in the Powerschool Parent Portal beginning on June 17th.
Acadience Scores
Students in grades K-3 are assessed using the Acadience reading assessment system. It is an evidence based tool and also serves as a dyslexia screener. Students are assessed in phonological awareness and reading fluency. Parents will receive a letter in the mail with end of year scores at the end of next week.
SAS Scores
Students in grade 3-8 take the state assessment or SAS in reading, writing, and math. Students in grades 5 and 8 also take the SAS in science. Parents will be able to access those scores electronically again this year. We will send a letter to each family with an access code for your child’s scores via US Mail at the end of next week, providing the reading/writing scores are posted by then. If you need to request a printed copy, please email Sue MacLaughlin in the office after receiving your letter. Thank you.
Last Day of School
Reminder that the last day of school is June 12 with a 12:00 dismissal. We will continue our tradition to have a “Clap Out” for our 8th graders. Students will line the hallways at 11:45 as our 8th grade students take a last lap around the school. Parents are welcome to join the “Clap Out” outside as they exit the playground door.
Lunch Bills
Please check to see if your child has an outstanding bill for school lunches. If you have money still on the account, please contact Paula Field to let her know if you would like a refund or have it applied to next year.
