Griffin Nation!! It's Valentines Week here at good ole NDMS as well as the last week before Winter break. Meaning, kids be wildin(I think that's how they say it). Please, I beg you, don't send your middle school students here with pockets full of candy or anything else that could affect your sweet child's behavior. We are doing all we can to keep them focused before break!!! LOL. Seriously, this week will be great and I look forward to ensuring that our level of focus remains intact as we continue to inch closer to state testing. We learn, We lead, We serve!
