Dear North Hampton Families,
The Portsmouth Symphony Brass Quintet performed “Meet the Brass” for our school on Oct. 22. It was a wonderful performance with musical choices that delighted the students. Some well received pieces were: “Ghostbusters,” “Let it Go,” “Harry Potter Theme,” “Star Wars Theme,” and songs from “Encanto” and “Moana.” We are so grateful for this shared musical experience.
November Menus
Please see menus in the attachments below.
Annual Veteran’s Day Assembly: Nov. 8
NHS Student Government will hold its annual Veteran’s Day assembly to honor local veterans. If you have a family member who is a veteran, please let us know so we may invite them to attend this event. Immediately following the assembly, we have a light breakfast for veterans and the student who has invited them.
Picture Re-take Day
If you are unhappy with your child’s school pictures or if your child was absent from school on Picture Day, Geskus will be here for re-takes on Nov. 4th.
Regular Attendance Reminder
Regular attendance in school has been shown to positively impact student achievement. Conversely, when students miss school, it can impact their progress. Please remember that absences for taking a family vacation during school days are considered unexcused. Arriving on time to school also sets students up for a positive day. It can be hard when arriving late after the day has begun in a child’s classroom. We thank you for your continued support.
Halloween Parade at NHS on Oct. 30th (PK-3)
Students in grades PK-3 will participate in a costume parade outside on Oct. 30th at 9:00 AM. Parents are welcome and encouraged to attend. Please send your child’s costume to school in a bag and be sure they have comfortable clothes for the rest of the day. Costumes with fake weapons, violent themes, or fake blood are NOT allowed. Masks are discouraged as they can make it difficult for students to see.

Please see the flyers at the bottom of this note. Our annual Talent Show will be Nov. 22 at 6 PM. The rules for the Talent Show are in one of the attachments below. Acts should be no longer than 2.5 minutes. The sign up form is in Parent Square. We can’t wait to see all the talent!
