Grandparents Day/Valentine’s Day

NDLE will host Grandparents Day for our students on February 14th. Kindergarten grandparents will begin in the gym for an assembly at 8:00, PreK grandparents at 8:50, and First grade grandparents at 9:40. After the assembly, grandparents will visit their student’s classroom and sign the student out with their teacher. After that, they can enjoy reading a book or taking a picture together in the multipurpose room then board games in the cafeteria. Kona Ice will also be here if grandparents want to buy their sweeties a sweet treat! Older siblings will attend the assembly of their younger siblings. Parents please let your child’s teacher know if that is the case for your family. Click the link to see a google doc of a detailed schedule.
