Update on Lunch Choices
Food & Nutrition Services is working on bringing back more of the variety offered in our menus prior to COVID and major supply chain issues. December is the start of the Winter menu cycle and Food & Nutrition Services will resume offering three daily menu options at the Elementary level.
Beginning Monday, December 5, the elementary menu will have 3 options for students to choose from.
You can find updated picture menus on the NSD Food & Nutrition webpage daily.

Weekly Covid Case Update
The Department of Health (DOH) requires schools to inform families and students about COVID-19 case numbers and potential outbreaks. This week, there were a total of 3 confirmed cases at our school. The accuracy of our data depends on self-reporting. Thank you for continuing to let the school know if your child tests positive for COVID-19. To view additional information, including school and district trends visit the District’s COVID-19 data dashboard. The dashboard is updated weekly on Monday evenings.
If your child is exhibiting symptoms of COVID-19 keep them home and test for COVID-19. Families can order free COVID-19 tests from the state. Together, we can keep our schools healthy and safe.
If your child is home sick or in isolation, they can access zoom classes here: Isolation Learning Support
