Note from the Principal
March 1st, 2021
Hello NES Families,
Happy Monday! We have a consistent week ahead with no major events or changes here at school. Thank you for supporting Monday learning at home.
Is your student interested in playing soccer or baseball? Now that we are moving into the month of March, spring sports are getting ready to open and will be planning for a safe season. Please see the registration links below and pass onto your friends.
Also please take a moment to read through the Health Screening letter below. We are grateful that we can provide this service to all of our children.
Thank you,
Katie Brown
Health Screening Opt Out Letter
The Nooksack Valley School District will conduct health screenings at Everson, Nooksack, and Sumas Elementary between March 20th – April 2nd. In order to promote student health and well-being, each child will each receive a vision, and hearing screening. You will be notified in writing if a concern is found as a result of any of these screenings. Information about each screening is provided below.
Washington State law mandates that the following screenings be completed:
- Vision – Vision screenings are for both near and distance vision. Even if your child passes this screening, an exam from an eye doctor may still be needed. School nurses will conduct the initial vision screenings. Prior to sending home a referral, a second screening will be conducted by a school nurse.
- Hearing – Hearing screenings will be provided by a district speech and language therapist. Washington State law requires that two screenings occur before a referral is sent home to parents.
If you would like your child to be excluded from any part of the screening, please contact the school office at 360-966-3321.

Nooksack Baseball Registration
A note from Duane DeWaard:
Baseball registration is now open and will close on March 10th. We are going to be quite strict with the deadline this year as we have a lot to do in a short time to get teams formed and practices started by 3/22. Pass this along! Also, we will have some player/coach safety rules that we are going to be strict about following as these rules are what is allowing us to play this year. Let’s play some baseball
