Clubs Our clubs will be up and running soon! We strongly encourage our stu- dents to get involved and sign up for something that interests them. Our updated club list is on page 3 of this newsletter – please take some time to review and contact the teacher who is sponsoring the club for more infor- mation. Pre-Tests Our teachers have jumped right in this week as I visited many of our PLC’s yesterday morning and saw the great work that is already being planned for in our classrooms! Many of our teachers have already given pre-tests this week to determine how to plan for our students in their up- coming lessons. Next Monday through Thursday, students enrolled in World Language classes will be taking a much more formal pre-test called SLO (Student Learning Objectives). Please ensure World Language stu- dents are here during their testing times as this is a state mandated assess- ment. (Teachers will communicate testing day and time to students). Carpool Please help us keep our kids safe! We are telling our students that they are not allowed to walk to the parking lot (due to moving cars). Students must wait by the front for the cars to pull up, or parents can park their cars in the parking lot and walk to the front to get their child. Please support us with this procedure. Thank you! Enrollment Today is our 5 day count and our enrollment is currently at 1332. This means we are pretty stable and should not earn or lose any teachers – which means our master schedule should not change. We will update you if this number changes over the next 5 days. The Musical Is…. Yes! It’ Aladdin this year!! And yes – I have begged Ms. Suzanne Grant to let me have a part!! The auditions this year will be held August 19th, 20th and 21st . The show will be on Thursday, November 6 th and again on Saturday, November 8 th . Mark the dates on your calendars and encourage all family members to come!

Rohan Dhume, Alex Campbell, and Anthony Maisano on their win
in the Fulton County STEM DAY Marble Competition in May. They built a track that kept their mar-ble rolling for the longest amount of time
(43 Seconds). Their win secured NMS $150.00 toward the purchase of STEM resource materials. We are very proud of
their achievement!
Staff Spotlight
We would like to recognize our graduation coach, Ms. Michelle Robbins this week.
She wears many hats, but ultimately all her hats relate to one goal and that is to en-sure the success of all our students! Ms. Robbins did a fantastic job this week in dis-
tributing textbooks to all our students – which is not an easy task but because of her dedication and well thought out plan, our students have their books and have al-
ready begun using them! Thank you Ms. Robbins for all that you do for our school!!

We would love to have you be a part of the concierge desk team! The team volunteers during a 2-hours shift
with responsibility to direct visitors and take care of items for students that are brought in by their par-
ents. Basically you become an extension of the front-desk staff and give them help during the 4-busy hours
of the school day. The two shifts are from 9-11 or 11-1, Monday through Friday. You can pick what day or
days you want to volunteer during the month. Please contact Karri Roy at [email protected].
Don’t Forget to Pick Up your Publix Partners Card
at the front desk the next time you are in the office.
Just present your Publix Partners school card at
checkout. All purchases at Publix will help earn money
for your school. For every $37,500 spent cumulatively by
your school's participants, Publix will award your school
$250.
