NAC Elementary is ready for our 4th annual March Madness Book Tournament! The Bobcat World Cup tournament has 16 great books in this year's match-up. Students in grades Pre-K - 5 will watch read-aloud videos by Mrs. Smallman each day and vote as a class for the book they want to advance in the tournament bracket. Be sure to ask the student in your life about the vote each day and get ready to dress up for the Championship round on March 25!

NACS Key Club, Builders Club, K-Kids, and Elementary students recently created over 500 Valentine's Day cards! Cards were sent to 11 locations in our area - senior housing located in Altona, Churubusco, and Ellenburg, Meals on Wheels recipients within the NAC school district, residents at the Alder Bend ARC house, as well as senior citizens residing at Meadowbrook Healthcare, CVPH's Skilled Nursing Floor, Clinton County Nursing Home, and St. Vilas Assisted Living.

Congratulations to our December 2023 PRIDE Award Winners!

Thank you to all who contributed to the recent school wide food drive held by Builders Club and Key Club. 378 pounds of food were collected and have been donated to the food shelves which serve the towns in our school community.

NAC Pre-K students are enjoying winter! Encourage the children in your life to engage in active, unstructured play by joining them in their imaginative outdoor fun. It helps you bond, models healthy interaction, and grows their bodies and brains!

Our Elementary Adventure-Based Learning (ABL) group recently hiked Rattlesnake Mountain and enjoyed these gorgeous views!

Pre-K celebrated with friends and family today at their harvest feast! In addition to sharing a meal together, they had fun with learning games and activities and a photo booth. Thank you to Mrs. Harrigan, Ms. Nichole and Ms. Jen for a fabulous event!

What a Key Club Week it has been! We wrapped up a shoe drive for Elmore SPCA with 22 pairs of donated shoes, showed our Key Club spirit, worked on community service projects with NACS Builders Club, received cards and donations from Rouses-Point Champlain Kiwanis and Rouses Point Elementary K-Kids for the deployed NACS soldier collection, and made treat bags for the NACS Senior Class of 2024. We have some other random acts of kindness planned for this month. Thank you to everyone who supports NACS Key Club and who has donated items. We couldn't do it without our awesome community!
