Principal's Message

Dear Niton Central School Community,


Hopefully all of you enjoyed the beautiful weather this weekend! I'd like to take an opportunity to thank all you for being so supportive since I have been in the Acting Principal role. NCS is a fantastic school with amazing students, parents, and staff. It is a privilege to be here!


With the end of April coming this week, we have a quick two months until the end of the school year with lots of great activities planned! A couple of important ones to be aware of in the near future include One Acts for Jr. High in Westlock, and the GYPSD Community Engagement Night on May 3rd. See the poster below!


Finally, as a reminder, there is no school for students on Friday as staff will be engaged in Professional Learning!


Have a great week!


Mr. Steve Ripkens, Acting Principal
