Round two of our STEM challenge photos!
Here are some highlights from yesterdays Celebration! 1st grade guided us through our 12 powerful words, 5th grader, Aubree, performed Amazing Grace on her recorder, and Mrs. French celebrated Archery's second and third place trophies! Ms. Dewitt's Positivity award went to Mrs. Kirk's 5th grade, 5th grader, Abby, won the AARP Grandparent Essay contest, and finally, 1st grade won January's attendance trophy! What a Celebration!
Don't forget! Next week, 2/13-2/17, is Kindness Week! And guess what? There are also DRESS UP DAYS!

When you work within the school system, the phrase, "it takes a village" is so true. Nichols would not be the same without the vital support of both our school counselor and our FRYSC. They really go together like peanut butter and jelly! Thank you, Mrs. Clark and Mrs. Belcher for being a part of our village!

Not only is it National School Counseling week, but it's also Family Resource and Youth Service Centers (FRYSC) Week! We have some amazing FRYSCs in BCPS, and Nichols has one of the best, Mekayla Belcher! (No, we're not biased, we promise!)
FRYSC roles in schools, communities, and education are vital to the bigger picture of serving our students and families all over. Thank you for all you do!

It's National School Counseling Week! We'd like to focus on the unique contribution of school counselors within our buildings and how our students are different as a result of what counselors do. National School Counseling Week highlights the tremendous impact school counselors can have in helping students achieve success. Nichols would not be the same without our own school counselor, Mrs. Clark!

Due to winter weather and hazardous road conditions, BCPS was closed on January 31st, 2023. This was a traditional snow day with the makeup day scheduled for May 26th.
You never know what kind of weather will show up this time of year! In an effort to be prepared for any NTI days we may run across this winter, here is 2022/23's NTI expectations and information.
Based on the National Board for Professional Teaching Standards, online work recommendations for Elementary students are 1-2 hours daily.
We do encourage at least one hour a day for outside recreational time (if it is safe!)
NTI Participation is tracked through at least ONE of the following:
Email to and from student
Phone Call (parent, student, etc.)
Work submitted or logged in through SeeSaw, Google Classroom, Edgenuity, email, etc.
Assignment submitted through learning platform or email
Attendance at virtual office hours.
Attendance at class or small group virtual meeting
FOR NTI DAYS TO COUNT, WE MUST HEAR FROM YOU OR YOUR STUDENT!
Thank you!
