September Student Recognition -- ROAR Award Winners

September ROAR Awards Handed Out


This fall NMS, and specifically Mr. McLaughlin, has begun a new program, which recognizes student achievement each month.  The ROAR award is given by each cluster to acknowledge students who have been Respectful, On-time, (positive) Attitude, and Responsible.  The goal is to recognize students who not only take care of basic expectations in class but are good citizens and role models in our community.

Award winners receive a certificate, a coupon for a free book at the book fair, bumper stickers for their parents’ cars, and their individual picture displayed in the school for the month.

The September award winners received their certificates from Dr. Weiss in a brief ceremony on October 1.

From L to R: Superintendent Dr. Weiss, Elena Freitas, Brianna Lowell, Kara McManus, Matthew Abban, Katelyn Harrington, Mr. McLaughlin, and Katrina Bingham-Maas.

The ROAR Award winners for September 2013 for each team were:

Grade 6 Challengers:  Kara McManus
Grade 6 Adventurers:  Elena Freitas
Grade 7 Explorers:  Katelyn Harrington
Grade 7 Beacons:  Katrina Bingham-Maas
Grade 8 Apollos:  Matthew Abban
Grade 8 Comets:  Brianna Lowell

Congratulations to all!  Thank you for all your efforts; you are ROARing to a great beginning of the school year!
