Hello North Families,

The National PTA and PTO organizations have designated the first week of May as Teacher Appreciation Week! What a wonderful way to show our admiration and gratitude to those that teach our children every day!

This year, at North, we are going to celebrate all staff and instead have a staff appreciation week.

The North administration is lucky to have such a terrific group of staff members at our school. Each teacher, assistant, cafe worker, bus driver, custodian, etc has worked so hard to provide a consistent, safe and caring environment for all of the children at our school. To show them our appreciation for all that they do, we would like to coordinate some special activities that we hope each parent & child will take part in during Staff Appreciation Week.

Attached to the newsletter today is a daily celebration we hope you will join in on.

Along with celebrating our staff, I want to send a shout-out to all of our 3-5th grade students. After two weeks of testing the majority of our students are done. They worked very hard and we are very proud of them!

Have a great weekend.

Sincerely,

Mr. Lugo

Principal

POP TABS

The sweetest way to support the Ronald McDonald House Charities

It takes approximately 1,128 pop tabs to equal one pound. They typically receive between $0.40 to $0.50 per pound of pop tabs. This program brings in an average of $6,000 each year. Last year, over 13 million pop tabs were donated. The tabs can come from soda pop cans, energy drinks, soup cans, or anything with a metallic tab.

The Pop Tab program is important because it provides extra revenue that can help make up for the donations that families cannot make. It is between $100-$140 per night to house one family at the Ronald McDonald House. Families are asked for a $10 per night room contribution, but no family is turned away based on the inability to pay.

The Ambassadors will be collecting pop tabs through the end of the school year. Please keep collecting those pop tabs!

PARENTS OF 5th GRADERS: Immunization requirements for 2022-2023:

ALL 5th graders going to 6th grade will need: 1 MCV4 (Meningococcal) and 1 Tdap (Tetanus and Pertussis). These are shots only given to this age group and/or when entering middle school. Noblesville Schools require a complete record by the first day of school. Once your student receives their immunizations, return an updated copy of your student’s shot records to the school nurse.
