🏀📚 March Madness is HERE at NEMS! 📚🏀 Ask you student about their GMAS Review!

The excitement is building as our students jump into March Madness GMAS Review! This morning review time is designed to get students ready, confident, and set for success on the GMAS.

📅 Now through April 10th
📌 Impactful: Students participate in weekly progress checks & leaderboard fun (leaders identified each week)

We’re making learning fun, competitive, and impactful as we prepare for testing season. Ask your student about their progress and what they’re working on each week! (Thank Ms. Schluckebier and Thompson for letting us peek in on your review!)

Finish strong, NEMS! 💪📖✨

NEMS LSGT ACADEMIC GROWTH CELEBRATION
We would like to thank the 8th Grade Parents for the amazing treats March 20th. The staff was so appreciative of your thoughtfulness and kindness. We have a busy week before spring break this week.
We have March Madness GMAS prep continuing as well as TWO different celebrations. March 26 is PBIS (Behavior Celebration) Movie Day at Brodie Field. Students that are eligible will need cash for snacks. March 27 is LSGT sponsored Academic Growth Celebration at NEMS. This is a free event thanks to the LSGT. Parents these two celebrations are complete different from each other and not contingent on each other.
Week of March 30-April 3rd is Spring Break!!!!
