We were honored to receive a book written by Mrs. Albright's OHS Sophomores! Mr. Tedders presented all elementary schools with a copy of this book and we can't wait to read it and use it as an example for our students of what they, too, can achieve!
We were excited to honor our students, Thatcher Hettema and Jack Small, at the OCSB meeting tonight for earning perfect scores on their end of year FAST assessment! Way to go NES Tigers!
🚍💛 Driver of the Week Alert! 💛🚍
We’re thrilled to announce that our new Driver of the Week is Mrs. Emily Streelman! 🎉
She was nominated by Ms. Anderson, who shared these sweet words:
“Emily has a rare superpower: she makes coming to work feel less like work and more like a daily dose of fun. Whether it’s her witty remarks, her contagious energy, or her uncanny ability to know exactly what needs to be done (and then do it flawlessly), Emily keeps the school both productive and entertained. She somehow manages to check off tasks with laser focus while making us laugh along the way—a combination that is nothing short of magical. Simply put, work is better, brighter, and way more enjoyable because Emily is in the mix. Our NES team is lucky to have her, and I can’t think of anyone more deserving of this recognition.”
Mrs. Streelman, your positive energy keeps our Energy Bus rolling strong! 🚌✨
Congratulations and thank you for making North Elementary a brighter, happier place! 💙💛

✨CONSISTENT ATTENDANCE = CONFIDENT LEARNERS 💪🍎
When students show up every day, they build skills and confidence to succeed!
🙌Attendance always matters, but October 6–10 is extra important! This week, the state takes its official enrollment snapshot, which helps determine school funding for the year.
✅ Students in class = accurate count = the right funding to keep our district strong and full of opportunities for our kids.
🌟Let’s make this week count- every student, every day, because it makes a difference!

Congratulations to our newest Driver of the Week — Ms. Gaus! 🎉🚌
She was nominated by Mrs. Bockoras, who shared these wonderful remarks:
"Ms. Gaus is always willing to give her energy and expertise to move the bus in the right direction. She is the OPPOSITE of an energy vampire. She is so flexible and willing to try new things. (She's becoming quite the AI advocate as well 😁). I wish everyone had her attitude! If Ms. Gaus is driving the bus, I want to be on it!"
👏👏 Thank you, Ms. Gaus, for your positivity, energy, and leadership. NES is so lucky to have you on our Energy Bus!
