***Core & Encore Team Updates *********************************************************************

Team Lafayette (6th) (Twitter @NMSLafayette Team Leader Mrs. Hackman)   See our welcome letter on the NMS Website!  Congratulations to our Pride of the Lions winners for the month: Mia Deemer and Leah Langkamer. Congratulations to Abiola Adeyemo and Israel Lopez who represented Team Lafayette in the NMS School Spelling Bee. They did a fantastic job! We have made it through half the year and supplies for some are needing to be replenished.  Most students are doing a great job bringing their laptops charged and ready to go, while a small few are continuing to need reminders.  Keeping ahead of the day to day details will help minimize stress and anxiety throughout the school day.  Stay prepared, stay healthy, and talk to us if you have any questions or needs at school!

Team Lehigh (6th) (Twitter @NMSTeamLehigh/ Facebook @NitschmannTeamLehigh Team Leader Mrs. Oliver) See our welcome letter on the NMS Website!   A sincere apology to Manmeet Kaur.  She was also a December Pride of the Lion!!  Somehow we missed this in last week’s email. We all  thank her  for her  hard work!! We would also like to welcome back Mrs. Druckenmiller to team Lehigh.  She has been out the first semester and will be returning to teach Social Studies on Tuesday. 

The end of the 2nd marking period is here!! Check your grade reports to be sure all your grades are in good standing. Look for missing assignments and/or assignments that can be remediated and get working on them. We have had many absences from school lately. If you are out, please check schoology to see what we are doing in class and if you feel up to it, get it done so that you do not come back to school behind. Also, as we move further into the school year, the use of calculators in math is becoming more crucial both in class and for homework.  The TI-30x is probably the best buy as it is the cheapest of the calculators that are versatile enough to last throughout middle school.  These can be purchased at Walmart, Target, Staples, etc.  The school store does have a limited supply of them as well.  If you need one, please get one soon, you will need it!!!!

Team Moravian (6th) – (Twitter @NMSTeam Moravian/Facebook@NMSTeamMoravian Team Leader Mrs. RoufakisSee our welcome letter on the NMS Website! PLEASE make sure your child has a calculator for math. It will make their life much easier and it is a tool they will use through middle and high school. The TI-30X is the easiest one to use. As always, continue to check grades/assignments on Schoology.  We are always available for extra help, if needed.  Sniffle season has begun.  If you would like to send tissue donations in, it would be greatly appreciated.  Also, please make sure your child has a supply of pencils and other everyday items.  Many students are coming unprepared without supplies.
