Hello NCA Bears! I hope you had a wonderful 3-day weekend! For those of you who chose to work, I hope you found it to be productive. For those of you who didn’t, it’s ok! Jump back in today and make things happen. As we navigate through the week and the remainder of the school year, I want to take a moment to emphasize the importance of self-confidence in not only your years of high school but life outside of high school as well. Confidence should be looked at as a foundation on which you build your dreams, aspirations, and accomplishments. It's the unwavering belief in yourself, the courage to pursue your passions, and the resilience to overcome setbacks. With confidence, you can conquer challenges, embrace opportunities, and find success. Confidence is not gained overnight. It is something you will grow over time through self-discovery, self-acceptance, and self-belief. As you work towards building your confidence, always remember to believe in yourself, we certainly believe in YOU! State Testing - We apologize for any confusion regarding state testing. Attached you will find the updated calendar for testing including grade levels. We have also added the label of “not required” to testing data views so you can easily identify if that specific test is required for you to complete. Please continue to reach out with questions if you need further clarification. Nevada Reading Week - Student Council is putting together a book recommendation list for Nevada Reading Week and would like to hear your book reviews and book recommendations. Take a moment to fill out the survey HERE. The survey will close on February 25th. Attendance - Attendance is a vital component of our school and must be consistently recorded. Attendance runs from Saturday to Friday and will be collected through this form each week. This DOES NOT mean you should wait until Friday to fill out your attendance form.
