North Branch Area Public Schools
Help us welcome 2020-21 staff!
Greetings Vikings Students and Families!
I hope this message finds you well and counting down the days to return to learn! I am so excited to welcome all of you back to school!
Our staff at NBAPS continues to express how much they miss our students and how excited they are for the 2020-21 school year! In spite of the difficult circumstances brought on by COVID-19, staff continue to forge ahead, thinking first—and always—of our students.
Staff will be back in our schools at the end of this month preparing for students. When I considered the most meaningful ways to welcome staff back for their workshop week, it became clear it should include hearing from students and parents/guardians!
It may surprise you how much your words of appreciation and expressions of excitement for the new year mean to our staff. I know I have been inspired on countless occasions by the support and encouragement from families over the summer and I am certain staff will too!
I ask for your help in welcoming staff for the 2020-21 school year by participating in a Padlet virtual bulletin board we have created. Participants can write messages of support, post video or audio messages, upload photos, and much more!
To get started, open this link and click on the small pink circle in the lower right corner. Beginning next week, we will share your inspiring messages with the entire staff and continue sharing messages throughout Welcome Week!
I know everyone is very busy this time of year but I hope you will take a few minutes to participate and help us welcome these dedicated public servants back to school for another great year at North Branch Area Public Schools!
Thank you so much and we’ll see you soon!
Sincerely,
Sara Paul
Superintendent
