Nottoway Intermediate School

🚀 Calling all 6th Graders: Are you ready to level up your brainpower? 🧠💥

If you love trivia, solving big puzzles, lightning-fast buzzer rounds, or just proving how much cool stuff you know, the ACE (Academic Competition for Excellence) Team wants YOU! 🏆✨

Permission slips can be picked up in the front office. Get it signed, turn it back in, and get ready to show everyone what 6th grade is made of.

Don't wait—your spot on the squad is waiting! 😎🏆

🎉 Week 1 is in the books, and you all crushed it! We loved seeing so many bright faces last week and can't wait for another fantastic five days of learning and growing together. Now it’s time to keep that momentum going into Week 2! 🚀

Take a break from cooking dinner tonight and celebrate the First Day of School. We look forward to seeing you there!

Calling All Sixth Grade Students!

If you are interested in playing soccer for NMS, come show us your skills, teamwork, and school spirit!

Welcome Back, Nottoway Intermediate School Families! 🐾

We are excited to welcome our students back for another wonderful school year! As we get started, we want to share a few friendly reminders to help make morning arrival, early dismissal, and attendance procedures safe and smooth for everyone.

🌅 Morning Arrival
Morning arrival begins at 8:30 a.m.
Students should enter through the front doors.
Classes begin promptly at 9:00 a.m.
Students arriving after 9:00 a.m. are considered late. A parent/guardian must come inside and sign the student in for the day.

🏠 Early Dismissal
If your child needs to leave school early:

Please send an early dismissal note with your child to homeroom.
The note should include:
Student's full name
Name of the adult who will be signing the student out
Approximate time of dismissal
Please plan to have early dismissals completed by 3:00 p.m.
After 3:00 p.m., our staff is preparing for and beginning the dismissal process for the entire school, making individual early dismissals more difficult to accommodate.

📝 Absence Notes
When your child is absent, please remember:

An absence note should be turned in on the day your child returns to school.
Please provide a separate note for each day your child was absent, unless the absence is documented by a doctor's note.

Thank you for helping us keep our arrival and dismissal procedures safe, organized, and efficient for all of our students and families.

We appreciate your partnership and look forward to an amazing school year!

Welcome Back, Tigers! 🐾
Have a GREAT year!

Nottoway Intermediate School Families, The safety and security of our students remain our top priority. To help us maintain a safe and orderly environment, we ask for your full cooperation when picking up your child during the school day. Please remember the following procedures: All parents and guardians must report directly to the school office when arriving to pick up a student. A valid photo ID is required for verification every time you sign out your child. Please follow the directions of school staff and officials to ensure an efficient and secure process. These procedures are in place to protect every student at Nottoway Intermediate School. We appreciate your partnership in helping us maintain a safe environment where our students can learn and grow. Thank you for your understanding, support, and continued commitment to the safety of all our children. Together, We Are Nottoway—Committed to Excellence.
