Message from Principal
Middle School Families:
Third quarter is off to a great start. Report cards for quarter two may be accessed online through Skyward/ Family Access. To view your student’s report card, click on "Portfolio" and view Report Card in Skyward. Please contact Kim Tousignant 507-663-0664 with questions.
February is packed with amazing learning opportunities at the middle school. We celebrate Black history, the love of reading, as well as Valentine's day, and President’s day. For families looking for resources for Black History Month, we have linked two options:
The History Channel:
https://www.history.com/topics/black-history/black-history-month, and
Scholastic On Our Minds:

February is the shortest month but is not short on great events like our middle school dance and spirit week. Make sure to look carefully at the NMS Update 1.28.2024 to mark your calendars.
