Molly Sullivan Sliney visits NES

We are so fortunate that the PTA sponsors programs that support the C.A.R.E.S. culture here at NES.  Today, we had Olympian Molly Sullivan Sliney, a distinguished member of the 1988 and 1992 United States team visit our students in grades 3-6.  Molly also was a member of the 1987 and 1991 Pan American teams where she won two gold medals.
Since retiring from competition, Molly has been an active public speaker and fencing instructor.  Her speech was inspiring and enjoyed by all!

NES Halloween Parade

The annual NES Halloween Parade will take place on October 31st from 1:30-2:30.  A short classroom party will take place following the parade with healthy snacks in accordance to our Health and Wellness policy.  Please also be mindful of any food restrictions in individual classrooms. 

Students should bring their costumes to school in a bag and will change into their costumes at school.  Costumes should fit over students regular clothes and must be appropriate for school.  Any costume that is deemed inappropriate, will be asked to be removed.  No blood, gore, or weapons please!  Students may wear masks, but they must be appropriate. 

Students will be dismissed at the normal time.  We are asking for your assistance to make this year’s parade safe and fun for all.

Lockdown Drill at NES

Today we practiced our first Lockdown Drill.  The students did an exceptional job. The Newbury Police assisted in the Lockdown Drill.  NES was complimented by the Newbury Police in saying this was one of the best Lockdown Procedures they have participated in.  I'm very proud of the NES School Community.
