One way to share your family's experience with our school this year is to respond to the survey link below. Surveying helps our school community understand how families feel welcome and connected. It also informs us of areas we can grow in related to building partnerships with the families we serve. As a measure of culture and climate, these survey responses will be used during our school council meetings to set family engagement goals and plan for school events. Thank you for participating and for being a valued voice in our school's community. 

When notifying us about your child's absence or submitting a medical note via Parentsquare, please ensure that you send the message to both Vanessa Keillor and Cheryl Michon. If needed, you may also include me in the message.

This is particularly important because Cheryl Michon is not in the building on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Wednesday morning.

Thank you for your attention to this matter!

Dear Caregivers,

Recently, the School Committee approved updates to the Attendance Policy (Policy JH), linked here. Please review this policy as it does address any excessive absences your child may have during the course of the school year and NPS procedures to addressing chronic absenteeism in the district. This policy supersedes information about attendance in the Code of Conduct. Thank you for your attention concerning this matter.

Peace, Joy and Unity

Dr. Portia S. Bonner (Dr. B)
