Note from the Principal
June 15th, 2020
Dear Families,
We did it! THANK YOU for your incredible partnership during this time of distance learning. None of this was easy and we took on the challenges together. I wanted to share with you a few important items for the last week of school and beyond.
1) Our students and families are superheroes. Everyone did the very best they could during this time. It was an honor and privilege to teach your children. A special shout out to our 5th grade students as they move on to middle school and their next step in life. We love you and we know you will do GREAT things.
2) Please turn in chromebooks, library books, and recorders. You can drop these off during free meal pick-up between 11-1 on Tuesday or Thursday this week, or in the provided box at the front door.
3) The last day of school is Friday, June 19th. We will have a celebration parade from 12:00-1:00 for anyone who wants to come. Families need to stay in their cars, but can drive around the school, wave to staff, and celebrate a job well done!
4) We will mail home an end of year progress report. This is not a report card. It is simply a letter to mark the end of the school year and celebrate students moving on to the next grade.
5) Food service will continue into the summer at 3 locations. We will have regular food service here at NES from 11-1 on Tuesday, June 16th and Thursday, June 18th. Starting the week of June 22nd, free meals will be available from 11-1 at Everson Elementary, NV Middle School and Sumas Elementary (not NES).
Finally, we are looking forward to reopening our schools next fall. We want to listen, learn, and plan with our community. We will communicate with you as soon as we possibly can. Please feel free to reach out to me with questions or concerns at katie.brown@nv.k12.wa.us.
Here’s to celebrating our 2019-2020 school year!
Sincerely,
Katie Brown

Football Registration Information
We are excited to announce that registrations for the 2020 flag and tackle football season are now open. Due to the uncertainty of COVID-19 we are not collecting registration dues at this time.
Please visit the Nooksack Youth Football Facebook page to download the application. If you do not have access to Facebook, please email or call Heather Bunker and she will get a registration application to you.
Email - bunkerfamily5@gmail.com
Phone - 360-305-1314
The application deadline is June 23rd.
The directors from the various schools in our league have been meeting regularly to discuss what this 2020 season will look like due to COVID-19. Our youth season will be dependent on the high school season starting, as we use the school facilities. If all goes according to plan, practices for tackle will begin August 17th and the Jamboree will be September 12. This will put the last day of games on October 31.
We need to plan accordingly for coaches, teams and equipment so it is important to get registrations turned in as soon as possible. We are excited about getting these kids out to play and get some normalcy back in our lives. We are looking forward to this season.
