Hello Pier School Families,

Here we are in the middle of our third week of distance learning and I want to thank you for all you are doing at home to support your student and the teachers.  As we continue in this uncharted territory, being candid and open with us about your experience is crucial to our success and appreciated. 

Third quarter has closed and we will be mailing home report cards by early next week.  As the fourth quarter begins with the uncertainty of what that will look like for the balance of the school year,  I asked students in a screencast message yesterday to “stay the course.” They are doing great work and the whole NPS staff is proud of them.

In my email to students yesterday, I also announced an NPS Dance Video Challenge. Our hope is that this will give them a chance to be silly and smile. The details are in the link below. 

In this difficult time, we need community more than ever.  The Johnny Cake Center has been a great partner to our community and has been serving many families.  If you need assistance, please reach out to them or if you can support their efforts, please consider donating.  If the school can support you at this time, please don’t hesitate to let me know how we can help.

Thank you, Marianne
