Hey there, Students and parents.! Fresh Starts & Refreshed Minds Connecting for Success!
As September is here and school just breezes into our lives. It's that time of the year when we finally bid farewell to our summer's lazy days ( and for some hectic days.)and we gear up for an exciting new school adventure. We the staff at all our Outreach schools are thrilled to be part of what NLPS does best teaching, supporting and engaging with our students in a positive and encouraging environment not only for our students but also with our families.
The first day seemed like mayhem and then it settles, The front door opened to new and returning students and also with parents wanting to check us out to see if we were the right fit for their youth.
If you have any questions on how we offer the best each day to enhance and encourage our students and staff to be our best and strive to even do more, just call your closest Outreach School.
We are offering a new journey of fresh starts and meaningful connections as we dive into the back-to-school season.
Per CLOS previous sharing that means so much. As we always say and do in September:" Check our mental health, Self-Reflection and Awareness. Let's journey inward to discover the power of self-awareness and the magic of introspection. Here at Outreach we are focusing on this months theme by setting our academic and personal goals by building students skills through daily advisory meetings where short and long term goals are established. Through guided reflection our students are learning important life long skills."
September Truth and Reconciliation day on September 30 Monday. A time to remember
