School Pictures Today - we will start as soon as attendance has been taken during advisory.  Starting with the two groups from the gym.  Then after the advisory we will move to 8th grade and work our way around.  All Staff and students need to have their picture taken regardless for our records.

 

Broadcast and Video Production - Are you interested in sports, using video equipment and computers? Can you imagine yourself working for ESPN or Husker Vision someday?  We are looking for students to help broadcast sporting events on Youtube and possibly edit game highlights for social media.  We need motivated students that can consistently commit time outside of school (athletic events) to be announcers, camera/replay operators, and video editors.  Please see or email Mr. Carlson for more information (andrew.carlson@nsdtitans.org).

 

Reminder to be On Time each morning and to each class.

Tardies will be kept track of and the Tardy Policy will be in effect.

 

The Daily Bulletin will be emailed to you each and every school day.

Website for their viewing.  There is no Thursday Folder.

 

If playing a sport (7th & 8th Graders) the following forms are due in the office before you can practice:

As a 7th Grader you must have a current Physical on file whether playing a sport or not.  Dated after May 1st, 2022.

 

If you are not playing a sport, 6th - 8th graders are eligible to purchase an Activity Pass for $30.  This pass will get you into MS & HS non-tournament games at no cost.
