Dear Parents and Families,

During the month of March, we are fortunate to participate in the Tobacco-Free Prevention Kids Campaign being led by our PTA. Please see the PTA Newsletter for more specific information.

Also, we are in the planning stages of Eagle Academy. This is our schoolwide EOG test prep. We are looking for a few parent volunteers to help with groups from 2:55-3:40 on Wednesdays and Thursdays beginning March 29. If you are interested in helping, please complete this interest form.

The club is seeking donations of garden gloves, gardening tools, watering cans and trash grabbers. We also are looking to fill our raised garden bed with soil if anyone has good gardening soil to donate! Thank you to the PTA for donating the roses and marigolds for the front planters!

Dear Band Families,

I wanted to let you know that I am out sick through Wednesday, and our concert this Tuesday needs to be cancelled. The kids have been working very hard and I have been looking forward to them showing off their MPA concert program. Not only have they been practicing our three pieces for the stage, they have been practicing sight-reading and learning other pieces that will be performed beyond MPA. I am so proud of them!

We are still going to MPA in Havelock on Wednesday, March 15 via charter bus. If your student has not turned in a permission slip for this field trip, please make sure they get one filled out and turned in. Information went home last week. They can pick up another copy from Mrs. Luck on Monday or Tuesday.

8th grade has a brief field trip to Laney HS on Thursday during their elective time. They are practicing with the Laney band for a combined concert on Monday, March 20. Permission slips have been sent home for this and need to be turned in before Thursday.

Thank you for your understanding.

We are making progress on our outstanding balance! Thank you to those of you who have been making payments and to the families who have made donations. If you would like to help a family pay down their balance, please reach out to Dr. Brown. We are desperately trying to reach a $0 balance before the end of the school year.

If you received a letter from Child Nutrition regarding a lunch fine, please try to pay the balance before the end of the 3rd nine weeks, March 31.

Use MySchoolBucks online account to manage your child's balance and monitor purchases.

Cash or check is accepted and can be directly deposited in your account in the Noble Cafeteria.

For questions or support, please contact Noble's Child Nutrition Manager Brandi Thomas (910) 397-1527.

You can also complete an application to see if you may qualify for Free/Reduced Lunch at https://www.myschoolapps.com/Application
