Our wolves did an amazing job reading in January! We had 170 students complete the bingo board to earn a certificate and scratch off card! Additionally, we read 201, 894 minutes as a school throughout the month! Dr. Lockard and Mrs. McGaha will go to recess with each grade to celebrate their hard work!

Author James Riley will visit the 3rd-5th grades at NMES on April 1st to discuss his new book, The Dragon's Apprentice! We are so grateful for the Curious Iguana in making this visit happen for us! Anyone interested in pre-ordering a book may visit http://curiousiguana.com/product/newmarketjamesriley/ by March 16th! For questions, please email Mrs. Siderius, our media specialist, at jennifer.siderius@fcps.org.

Our NMES wolves love to learn, so here's an optional holiday choice board to keep them exploring all month long! In March, they can learn about Women's History Month, St. Patrick's Day, National Anthem Day and more!! All links will take you directly to articles in PebbleGo or Wonderopolis. If you need assistance, please reach out to our media specialist, Mrs. Siderius, at jennifer.siderius@fcps.org.
