Principal's Update #20
May 12 2024
Hello Students, Parents, Guardians and Caregivers,
Happy Mother’s Day to all the mothers, grandmothers and caregivers in the role of mothers!
Thank you to our NAHS PAC and for all the parents that contributed to our Educator Appreciation Lunch on Wednesday. Our teachers and staff are very grateful for the support from our NAHS community. It’s always nice to be able to spend time together as a staff.
Special thanks to all of those that donated the delicious food and to those that contributed money or time to help setup or cleanup. Please consider supporting Casa Blanca of North Andover. Casa Blanca is a long time supporter of NAHS and donated platters of delicious food for our entire staff. We are very lucky to have such a generous and talented restaurant owner as part of our North Andover community. Please visit Casa Blanca in North Andover and say thank you for their support of our teachers when you are there.
Please see the remainder of my update below.
