The SNS Community Staying Connected |
|
The annual TERRA NOVA testing kicked off today, Thursday, 3/11. Our students are always extremely well-prepared by their teachers and we are confident they will do a fantastic job. We ask that all students arrive to school on time in the morning and parents pay special attention to their children getting a good night sleep and eating a healthy breakfast during the testing period. Research has shown how doing these two things ensures a child will work at full capacity. Any questions about the Terra Nova testing can be directed to your child’s classroom teacher or to Mrs. Hennessy.

THE ANNUAL FUND CAMPAIGN, Show Your Love to SNS, is well underway. Thank you to all the families who have already donated to this effort. Although much has changed in the last year, our school’s commitment to providing quality academics in a faith-filled learning environment has continued to shine brightly.
Great things happen when people come together and we are asking everyone to come together for SNS now. The Annual Fund delivers 11% of the school’s annual operating budget and supports ongoing investments in health & safety, technology, and faculty professional development. The broad range of initiatives supported by the Annual Fund means that every student and family benefit from the money raised. Family participation is a critical factor not only for to the overall success of the Annual Fund, but also for grant support from foundations and corporations.
