NEWS FROM DR. COOPER
Dear Families,
Winter weather is in full effect and here to stay for a while. Please be sure to send coats, hats and gloves on a daily basis as students will go outside when the temperature is above zero (with wind-chill).
The Neihardt staff is VERY excited about kicking off our One School, One Book Event next week. Books and packets will be sent home on Wednesday and we invite our WHOLE Neihardt community to read The Fourteenth Goldfish. Mark your calendar for February 15th from 5:00-6:30 for our night event.
Have a great weekend,
Dr. Tara Cooper

INFORMATION ON NORTH MIDDLE SCHOOL IB PROGRAM
NMS held their IB-MYP parent information night presentation on Thursday, January 18th. The snow and inclement weather were obstacles for many families who could not attend. To help inform those who could not attend, NMS has placed the presentation on their NMS web page and included it as a link below.
