Principal's Message
Dear NAMS Families,
As we approach Thanksgiving, we want to express our deep gratitude to our incredible middle school families, students, and staff. Your unwavering support and active involvement make our school community truly special.
Thank you for your dedication to education and the success of our students. Your efforts, big and small, contribute to the positive and nurturing environment that defines New Albany Middle School.
Wishing you a Thanksgiving filled with joy, surrounded by loved ones. May this holiday season bring you well-deserved rest and moments of gratitude.
Thanksgiving Break begins at the end of today. Classes resume on Monday, November 27, 2023.
Thank you,
Mr. Kevin L. Freeman Sr.

MAP Testing
MAP Testing will take place on December 5th and 7th. Students will take MAP Reading on the 5th and Math on the 7th. Please plan accordingly and try to avoid scheduling conflicts.
Attendance Reminders
Chronic absenteeism from school is a problem nationwide and locally across the state of Ohio. Please click here for the NAPLS attendance information.
Drop off and Pick up Reminder
Parents, it is important to remember that when dropping off your students in the morning, we use a single line drop-off system. This means that no cars should be passing other cars in the drop-off line. It is crucial for the safety of our children and staff members that we follow this procedure to ensure that everyone arrives at school safely. Thank you for your cooperation.
Book Challenge Update
NAMS students have been reading. At the beginning of October, we started our book reading challenge. To date students have read a total of 180,692 pages. Please remind your child to keep reading and recording their progress, as we appreciate your support in fostering a culture of reading at NAMS.
