Lunch Time Recycle Help
Parents - have you heard the news? Due to some really hard work by several classes, NBE has started a recycling program and we could use your help! Young students are still learning exactly what items can be recycled and what needs to be placed in the trash can. This is where we need your help! Trust us - it's an easy and short volunteer opportunity!
What you need to do:
Stand by the recycling can and assist students with selecting items from their tray that can be recycled
What you DONT need to do:
Open ketchup packets
Wipe up any spills
Send students to clinic
Anything messy or stressful!

HSE District Wide Art Show on March 16th and 17th

If your art work is on display, you already received a paper invitation that was sent home. You do not have to be there both days for the entire time. You may come whenever you’d like during the art show. There will be lots of art work from all grade levels to see.
There are now a total of 144 pieces of art in the show that were made by New Britton students!!

Car Rider Information
The easiest and most efficient way for your children to get to and from school is the district provided transportation. Our busing system is set in place to transport NBE students safely and efficiently.
If your student needs to be a car rider more than occasionally and you have not yet received a car tag, please email Michelle at mayres@hse.k12.in.us with your name, your student's name and your 4 digit FastLane number to get your car tag.
Please be sure hang the car tag from your
rear view mirror each day
to help expedite the pick up process.

Panorama Surveys to Gather Stakeholder Feedback
HSE Schools is excited to announce a new partnership with Panorama Education. This partnership allows our schools to collect valuable feedback from three critical stakeholder groups: students, parents, and teachers. Over the next three weeks, we will be conducting surveys to learn more about the perceptions and needs of our school community. All K-12 students will participate in the Panorama Social-Emotional Learning Survey at school during the March 18 – 29 survey window. Family survey links will be sent directly from Panorama Education to the Guardian 1 email address on file in Skyward during the same window.
Learn more about social emotional learning and HSE Schools Comprehensive Student Success efforts by visiting hseschools.org and clicking on school counseling. If you have questions about the student survey or to opt out, please contact your building principal or Dr. Susan Drumm, HSE's Chief Analytics Officer (sdrumm@hse.k12.in.us). If you don’t receive your unique family survey link via email on March 18, please contact either support+hseschools@panoramaed.com or sdrumm@hse.k12.in.us.
HSE Schools are grateful to our grant partners for providing funding for this survey opportunity. Thank you in advance for your feedback and for all you do to help all 22,000 HSE Students become #HSEFutureReady.
