The Jaggy Awards are Coming…April 18th
If you are new to NHS, you may wonder, “What are the Jaggy Awards?”
They are a celebration of reading in an awards show format…think the Oscars! We have a red carpet for students and staff to walk. Of course, we go all out to be dressed up for the Jaggy’s and hope to have plenty of paparazzi and “Mom” -arazzi to take pictures and see us all enter. We typically do a red carpet walk outside from the gym lobby doors to the front doors. Due to space restrictions, the actual event can only accommodate students and staff in the cafeteria. During library times, students can vote on favorite titles, authors, characters, books made into movies and more. The categories vary by grade level. The winners are then announced at the Jaggy’s. (Spoiler alert…the Wimpy Kid has been cleaning up the past few years.)
Here is a video to give you an idea of the categories:

Maple Sugaring Update
Our 4th graders boiled 85 gallons of sap one day and 65 more gallons on another day in the past week. This yielded over 2 gallons of beautiful amber syrup! Way to go! It was a banner season and we thank the many 4th grade parent volunteers and Mr. Paul Haas, who spent many hours tending to the boil.
