Dear Choir Members,
We will be having a 10 minute, delicious choir meeting in which we will reflect upon last year’s performances and discuss this year’s upcoming repertoire. Please come promptly at the start of lunch… or suffer the crumb-sequences.
Miss Keus
Dear advisors and students,
We hope that you had an amazing summer.
The Student Council have already started to think of all the fun activities we will organize for you!
It is important for us to hear your voice!
Next week each advisory should elect one advisory liaison.
Starting September, the advisory liaison will be receiving a few survey questions weekly to ask their advisory and will report the result back to us.
Please find time each week for a 3 minute-Student Council announcement or survey.
If you want to be a Student Council member, tell your friends in your Grade. The Student Council Member Elections will take place in 2 weeks.
Willy Wang and Sarah Nappi
Presidents of the Student Council

Hi All,
We are removing some learning artifacts from D226. If these are yours, or if you are thinking of starting a learning materials museum, please drop by and remove from D226 by Monday at 8am. Thanks!
This means:
Homeroom teachers, please support the students by explaining the expectations to your students.
All teachers: use reinforcing and reminding language to redirect students.
And, of course, if it is raining, it will be an indoor break for G1-5.
Please remember to be on time, visible and proactive in your duties. Copy of the duty schedule is in the staff folder under procedures.
Attached is the PPT that we spoke about to the new parents in the PAC yesterday morning. (Just in case you are wondering what the top 5 things about NIS are!)
Pop Quiz, Hot Shot.
You are a Middle or Upper School student…
You have an issue with your schedule…

B. Stop by Mr. Bratton’s or Dr. Saavedra’s office and/or send them a polite email.
Tough call… You be the judge.
See you soon!

Hello Middle and Upper School Superstars!
Welcome to our 41 amazing new-to-NIS students in Grades 6-11 and welcome back to our returning MS/US rockstars.
A heads-up that we will have our Welcome Assembly tomorrow (Friday) at 2:30pm in the PAC. We will plan to start promptly, so please urge your Day 2, Block 5 teacher to help you be on-time to avoid the dreaded walk of shame.
See you there!
