Nichols Leadership Academy News #1

Hello Navigators,

I am thrilled to be back and appreciate all the support and patience from everyone in my absence. Life can bring challenges but I am at a place of stability and peace and am eager to return to Nichols. I am proud of our staff and the amazing start to the school year that happened. We have an excited week upcoming and I can't wait to connect with our students, staff and community.

Tuesday is Picture Day! make sure to dress your best. Flyers went home with more information.

On Wednesday, we will hold Back to School Night. The evening will begin at 5:30 in the MPR. I will welcome you all to the school year and share information about the Nichols Leadership Academy. I want to share information so everyone knows what our focus on Leadership truly means. At 6 PM we will hold the first classroom presentation and at 6:30 teachers will conduct a second classroom presentation. Both presentations will be the same to allow for families with multiple children to visit more classrooms.

I am so excited about our PTO this year. I was able to attend the first meeting and the turnout was amazing. I am so appreciative and optimistic about the amazing support the PTO will provide. Please consider joining and get involved in any way you can. Any help at all is appreciated. Let's make it fun and all about the kids! PTO members are eligible to vote in elections, a membership can be purchased here for $10: Nichols PTO Store

I can't wait to see everyone tomorrow. I love this school community and look forward to an amazing school year!
