Fun things to come

Our next building-wide event is our Craft Night hosted by the PTA. It is scheduled this Wednesday, Dec. 6, from 6:30-8 p.m. Come enjoy an evening with your family making crafts. The PTA is still looking for volunteers to help with setting up and breaking down the event. If you are interested in volunteering, please contact the PTA via their email, newscotlandpta@gmail.com. 

We also have our winter concert from the fourth and fifth grade Tuesday, Dec. 5 (tomorrow). This concert will be held at Hackett Middle School and it begins at 6:30 p.m. All families are welcome to attend this delightful event.

Thank you to everyone that came to our first Social Emotional Learning night last Thursday. We received positive feedback and we will be holding a Literacy and Math Night in the near future.
