As we begin preparations for Read Across America, we have a special school wide and community outreach project planned. For this project, we will need at least 125 EMPTY and CLEAN Cereal Boxes (from cereals that are peanut and tree nut free). If you have any EMPTY & CLEAN Cereal Boxes, please have your child bring it to the Main Office at Nixon School. More informtion on this exciting project to come in the coming weeks!

Recently during PEAK time, our Kindergarteners have been welcoming guest visitors into their classrooms. These guests have been speaking on and presenting about differenct careers. Our very own, Miss June - Lead Cook at Nixon School, shared with the students insight into one of her careers - a professional BALLARENIA. Equipped with lots of new insight into various careers, our Kindergarteners are now selecting a career to write about and present on!

Since her arrival at Nixon School in October, Ms. Arcieri has been very busy making a difference in the lives of our students, staff, and families. Let's show our appreciation for her and all that she does. In honor of School Counselor's week (February 5 thru 9), take a moment to share words of appreciation via this two question Google Form. Submissions will be shared either via Morning Announcements or personally with Ms. Arcieri.

Check out the upcoming January and February SCHOLASTIC STORYTIME shows!
Tune in to watch by visiting the Host Hub.

Nixon Families!

We are pleased to announce that our annual talent show is scheduled for Friday, February 23rd at 7pm. This year students will Reach for the Stars! and showcase their wonderful talents. For this year's talent show we will have 4th grade emcees!

During the 2023-2024, Nixon School will have a segment on our internally live streamed Morning Annoucements that focuses on our district's monthly Sustainability Themes. Every Nixon School student has the opportunity to be a part of this effort.

All it takes is a student, possibly along with their family, working together to complete and submit this form with a suggested, BRIEF Public Service Announement focused on one of our Sustainability themes. Suggested PSA's will be considered and then potentially scheduled to take place during the respective month.

We look forward to our students being stewards of our community's sustainability efforts.

Fill Out our Bucket Filler Nomination Form and we will recognize that individual (student or staff member) during Morning Announcements. Click the button below for the nomination form.
