COURTYARD UPGRADE
THANK YOU to all that donated to our Eagle Pride Fun in 2023! We were able to add FOUR umbrellas to our courtyard picnic tables!
The outdoor area will be used by staff and students for open air learning, lunch and social breaks. The Polywood All-Weather Tables (purchased last year from the Eagle Pride Fund) and commercial grade Noble umbrellas should help the space be functional and comfortable for years to come!

OPEN PTA BOARD & CHAIR POSITIONS
The MCS Noble PTA is looking for a few good people to join our board and chairs next school year. Three years of middle school goes by so quickly so don't wait to get involved! The following positions with a brief description are currently open to be filled for the 2024-2025 school year
PTA Board Positions:
Treasurer: We have big plans to raise money and fund important projects for our school, and we need someone who likes to count every penny to help us do it. If you secretly love to categorize expenses and create color- coded pie charts (and your sense of fiscal responsibility is rock-solid), you have what it takes to be our treasurer. Bonus points if your spouse teases you about how often you log into your personal finance app. Responsibilities include: Help to develop budget, collect and deposit dues and payments, write checks, maintain the books, and report monthly.
PTA Chair Positions:
Spirit Nights: AKA Party Planner!! Create a schedule of on and off-campus fundraising and/or community-building events (ie., FlipNFly Night, Defy Gravity, Nourish NC, Ice House). Schedule, advertise, collect funds, and write thank you to companies that provide a fundraising opportunity.
EagleWATCH (formally WatchDOGS): A family and community engagement educational initiative. At Noble, we invite dads/moms, neighbors, aunts/uncles, and grandparents too! The Coordinator is the point person, promotes the program, plans and executes training, and maintains on-line Sign-Up. The onsite coordinator is typically a vice principal. What are the goals of the EagleWATCH program?
1) To provide positive adult role models for the students, demonstrating by their presence that education is important.
2) To provide extra sets of eyes and ears to enhance school security and reduce bullying.
Please feel free to contact Katie Ferree at mcsnobleptapresident@gmail.com with interest and/or questions.
