NEWS FROM DR. COOPER
Dear Families,
It was a wonderful first week at Neihardt! Teachers worked on building strong classroom communities and we practiced our expectations throughout the building. This year students can earn a Castle Coin when they're caught demonstrating respectful, responsible or kind behavior. At the end of the month they'll have the opportunity to use their coins at our school store, The Shield Shop. We are excited for this new positive reinforcement system for students!
I have one quick reminder about arrival and dismissal. Staff will be outside at grade level doors from 8:15-8:30. If your student arrives after 8:30 they'll need to be dropped off at the front door. At dismissal, staff will remain outside with students until 3:43. At that time they will bring students back to the front office area and you'll need to pick them up in the front.
Dr. Tara Cooper
