SCHOOL NEWS

 

Congrats Mrs. Shrader! 

 

The Henrico Citizen recently named 4th grade teacher, Karen Shrader, in their "Henrico's Top Teachers" feature! Mrs. Shrader was nominated for the honor by members of the Henrico County community.  â€œFrom the very beginning Mrs. Shrader went above and beyond by turning her dining room into a classroom that made it look and feel like she was at school,” one parent nominator wrote. “To keep the kids engaged she would wear a different hat to go with a holiday or learning theme. She found a way to keep the kids guessing and intrigued about what she was going to do next which gave them a reason to get excited each morning.”

 

The full article can be found HERE.

 

Last Day of School Change

HCPS will be closed Friday, June 18 in observance of Juneteenth, the holiday marking the end of slavery. The last day of school will, therefore, be Thursday, June 17 (full day).

BOXTOP UPDATES!


- For any virtual students, we have placed a collection box outside of the front door of NFE. It is a plastic gray box clearly labeled as belonging to Boxtops.

- For any in-person student, clipped box tops can be turned to your teacher in a plastic Ziplock bag or we have included a blank collection sheet that can be printed off or feel free to tape clipped box tops to any sheet of paper.

- If you haven't done so already, please download and try the BTE App and encourage family and friends to as well. It's free and easy to use. Please select Nuckols Farm Elementary so that our school can receive credit on scanned submissions. This can be done all year long...even during the SUMMER! 

The more families participate, the closer we come to meeting our goal in spite of the pandemic. Thank you for your efforts in supporting our school by participating in the Box Tops for Education Program. Together, we all can make a difference in the community and for our school!
