Dear NDMS Families,

We are excited to welcome our students back after last week’s Winter Weather days! We hope that your families were able to stay warm, had access to water, and remained safe. We know those days can be stressful, but we also know they bring lots of opportunities to make wonderful family memories. I hope you all had the chance to slow down and enjoy the fun that winter weather can bring.

We are also ready to jump back into learning and refocus on our goals. This week, it’s important that we get back to work and make the most of our instructional time as we recover from the days of class that were missed. Every day of learning matters, and consistent attendance plays a huge role in student success.

We appreciate your continued support in ensuring your child is at school each day, on time, and ready to learn. Together, we can help our students stay on track and finish the school year strong.

Thank you for your partnership, and we look forward to a productive week ahead!

~Mrs. Rhoads
