Dear NE Parents & Guardians,

Our Spirit Days were a HUGE success this week and everyone loved today’s Pajama & Stuffy Day! Thank you for your participation and continued support.  

Speaking of participating, is your child actively reading for the FSA Read-a-Thon?  As you know, all reading logs and scavenger hunts are due on Monday, March 17th for your child to be eligible for prizes.  There is still time to join!! Does your child read nightly for homework?  If so, log the minutes!  Any support is appreciated and even the smallest contribution can make a difference!  Do you need a ‘paper’ version of the log?  Click the link and be sure to submit everything by Monday so your child can receive any deserved prizes!

Speaking of the FSA, a “leprechaun” will be visiting North End on Monday afternoon. Each student will receive a themed necklace and chocolate wrapped coins. Students will not be allowed to open their bags until after school when parents/guardians are with them to ensure children are safely able to consume the contents. Should you not want your child to receive a necklace or chocolate coins, please let the FSA know. (northendfsa@gmail.com)

As a reminder, all students will be dismissed at 12:30 PM on March 20, 2025 for staff professional development.  There will be no lunch or recess on this day.

As always, should you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to call our office.

Sincerely,
Traci Dyer, NE Principal
