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!!!!

NEMS nuggets this week

After consulting with the Emergency Management Agency and other local authorities, Tift County Schools will be closed tomorrow, Monday, March 16, 2026, due to the potential for severe weather. A strong storm system is projected to arrive in our area around 5:00AM and is expected to be cleared out of the area around noon.
The current forecast calls for widespread damaging winds with gusts of 60–70 mph, along with the possibility of tornadoes and large hail. Temperatures will drop significantly after the front moves through, so families should plan for freezing temperatures on Tuesday morning and ensure students are dressed appropriately.
The safety of our students and staff is our highest priority. Therefore, all schools will be closed and all athletic and extracurricular activities are canceled for Monday, March 16, 2026.
We encourage everyone to stay weather aware and take necessary precautions. Any additional updates will be shared through the district’s communication channels.
