NEF PANCAKE BREAKFAST
The Novi Educational Foundation (NEF) is thrilled to announce the return of the highly anticipated Pancake Breakfast on September 16, 2023. This year, we are proud to introduce a new partnership with the Novi Mental Health Alliance, bringing even more value to the event by incorporating our Parent Camp into the day activities.
Participants now have the option to attend one or both events, tailored to their preferences.
The Pancake Breakfast:
Join us in celebrating the commencement of the new school year by inviting the entire Novi Community School
District to a delightful pancake breakfast with all you can eat pancakes, sausage, fruit, coffee, juice and fun toppings. The event will take place in the High School Atrium and promises a morning of joy, entertainment, and exciting giveaways.
Parent Camp:
We are delighted to offer Parent Camp, an exclusive event crafted to equip parents with invaluable tools and
resources for effectively raising their children. This empowering occasion will commence with a captivating
keynote speaker, Hunter Clarke-Fields also known as the Mindful Mama, followed by two distinctive breakout
sessions. These sessions will encourage parents to participate in engaging discussions on various relevant topics.
