Message from Principal Strickland
A special week is coming at Nohl Canyon! On Monday, September 11, we will host a Patriot Assembly for our students where we honor our service members and first responders past and present. This assembly serves as as special remembrance of the events of 9/11 as well as the service members that protect and defend us. Our students are excited to welcome our honored guests as well as some very special guests representing the City of Anaheim, the Orange Unified Board of Education, as well as the Orange Unified School District. Our student performers and our boy and girl scouts have been working hard to prepare memorable performances to commemorate the day. It will be a great event!
About campus, our music, PE, and VAPA programs are off and running. The cast has been set and rehearsals for the fall musical are underway. It is great to see our Roadrunners building their toolboxes on a variety of fronts.
On Tuesday evening, our 6th grade families are encouraged to attend the Outdoor Ed parent meeting beginning at 5pm. The meeting will be held in our TLC. The Outdoor Ed 6th grade adventure is scheduled for the week of November 13th. We are thrilled for our 6th grade students to take part in the special experience. Go Roadrunners!

After the ceremony on Monday, the yearbook group photo will be taken of our troop members. Please have your child wear their scout uniform to school! We ask our military service members and first responders to remain for the group photo.
All Students are allowed to wear any Red, White, or Blue on Assembly Day!
Student of the Month Begins - September Focus - Hard Work
HARD WORK - “Failing to prepare is preparing to fail.”
Preparing for Success means you must work hard. Are you preparing to Succeed or preparing to fail? If you are looking for the easy way, a short cut or trick you are preparing to fail because success requires old-fashioned hard work. Remember: Only you know if you are working as hard as you can.
At the end of each month, students will be nominated by their teachers and receive principal recognition for their dedicated efforts.
Picture Day Makeups/Class Picture: 9/15

NOHL CANYON WEBPAGE
Section 5 of Article IX Notification
Section 5 of Article IX of the State of California Constitution guarantees students a “free public education.” The State Supreme Court concluded in the 1984 case of Hartzell v. Connell, “that all educational activities carried on by public school districts, extra-curricular as well as curricula, must be without cost to the students who participate in such activities.” This same ruling found that “mandatory fees for participating in such extra-curricular activities as drama, music, and athletic competition were illegal under the State Constitution.” Furthermore, they also rejected the argument that “fees could be charged so long as the district waived fees for students who were financially unable to pay.” Recent proposed legislation includes reimbursement with interest for any illegally-collected fees as well as a district sanction.
