Nichols Leadership Academy News #4
A Leader in Me School
Sunday Announcement!
Hello Navigators,
This past week I was inspired as I saw our students engaging in classroom lessons and building their knowledge and skills. Our first flag salute was a huge success as we watched student leaders take a greater role in the event. The week ended with our amazing PTO's Apple Pie making event.
On Wednesday we will hold out first School Site Council meeting. This meeting will be to select Council Officers and to explain to the council the role and responsibilities. You do not need to be a member to attend. We will meet at 7:45 AM.
See this document for information about caring for student issued devices. If you wish to insure your child's device please see this flyer. Time is running out to purchase the insurance.
Please see the new parent resources that were updated in this newsletter. This section of the newsletter will be updated often with a variety of information about all sorts of topics we may face.
I can't wait to see everyone this week. Have a great night.

Social Media
Setting media guidelines for kids helps create healthy habits by limiting screen time and promoting physical activity and social interaction. It also encourages children to engage with educational, age-appropriate content, fostering critical thinking. These guidelines protect kids from potential issues like sleep disruption and attention problems, supporting their overall well-being.
