A Quick Look Ahead at NIS - Let's Finish Strong!
Just a quick note to say how much we appreciate your ongoing support! We're looking forward to another great week here at Nottoway Intermediate School.
As we gear up for end-of-year review, it's more important than ever for students to be at school every day to make the most of their learning. We'll even have some fun "In Your Seat" attendance challenges to encourage consistent presence at school.
Please also continue to remind your child about the importance of following all school expectations. This helps create a positive and productive learning environment for everyone.
If your child needs to be absent, please remember to send in a doctor's note or a parent note upon their return, as per school policy.
Finally, a gentle reminder to ensure your child has all the necessary supplies to finish the school year strong.
Thank you again for your partnership. Here's to a successful week!
NIS Parents: Many of our students do not have earbuds for class. Please make sure your child has their supplies daily which includes a set of earbuds to complete online activities. We appreciate your continued support of NIS.
NIS Families: We have enclosed our testing schedule for upcoming SOL testing in May. Please make sure your child is present every day. As a reminder, all parents and visitors must sign in to the office. Office staff will let you know if the teacher is available.
