Hawks Happenings

Today we started the final grading period for the 2022-2023 school year! This year has truly flown by! I am proud of how much our students have grown so far this year and I look forward to seeing how much more we can grow by the end of the school year.

Please try to have your child at school every day that he/she is healthy so they can take advantage of classroom instruction and experiences. By working together, we can accomplish great things!

This newsletter has a lot of end of the year dates listed so please read over everything so you stay in the know. Everyone is encouraged to participate in our Title 1 survey linked below. Paper copies will also be sent home.

Thank you for your continued support of NBES! Our students are growing, learning and succeeding at North Buncombe Elementary!
