Our students are cashing in their Devil Dollars at the PBIS snack cart today! This is one of the many ways we reward our Blue Devils for demonstrating positive behavior and making great choices throughout the week.
A special shoutout to our FBLA students who are running the cart and putting their employability skills into action. From customer service to handling Devil Dollar transactions, they're gaining real-world business experience while serving their fellow students!
Keep earning those Devil Dollars, Blue Devils! Hard work and positive behavior always pay off at NEMS!

What a beautiful celebration we had today! We were honored to welcome Folklorico dancers Angel Aguilar and Karina Aguilar to Northeast Middle School as special guests for Hispanic Heritage Month.
Our students were captivated by the stunning traditional Mexican folk dance performances, complete with vibrant costumes and incredible choreography. This cultural experience gave our Blue Devils a wonderful opportunity to learn about and appreciate the rich traditions and heritage of the Hispanic community.
Thank you, Angel and Karina, for sharing your talent and culture with us. Moments like these help us celebrate the diversity that makes our school community so special!
