BULLDOG SCOOP
New Britton Elementary
Friday, September 20th
This Friday, September 30, is our first e-Learning day of the school year. Students will not attend school on e-Learning days. Instead, they will receive online instructional content provided by their teachers. These lessons will be interactive and relate to the curriculum for the specific class. Attached below is more information and answers to frequently asked questions about e-Learning days.
Nurses Notes
If your student has been sent home with clothes from the nurse, please wash those clothes and send them back. Donations of cellulous sponges would be very much appreciated by our nurse, Mrs. Cernero. Thank you!
First grade students participated in vision screening this week at school. Parents were notified if their child did NOT pass the screening.

Snack Attack - Fishers Youth Assistance Program
NBE is pleased to announce the return of the Snack Attack program for those students in need. This program, supported by the Fishers Youth Assistance Program, is designed to provide students a little extra nourishment for the weekend until they can receive a hot meal at school on Monday.
Here's how the program works. Your student will pick up a small sack of food to be taken home over the weekend. The sack is filled with individually wrapped snacks such as granola bars, fruit cups, pop tarts, peanut butter/crackers, Goldfish crackers, etc. The type of snacks will vary each week. Please let us know if your child has a peanut allergy as he/she will receive a special bag of peanut-free snacks.
There is no cost to you or the school. This program is open to students that qualify for the reduced lunch program or have an increased need currently.
To be part of this free program, you must sign up your family online. https://forms.gle/xrKNaxRaLypSqKvV8
