Here is a list of all our auxiliary department appreciation days for the school year! If your family/student utilizes these department services, we highly encourage you to make sure you and your student say thank you on these nationally recognized days. Our NES staff make our school so wonderful and special. Thank you NES!

NES Magnets are now available for sale! Approximately 3.5" in diameter, they are perfect for your car bumper or fridge.  A PTA member will contact you for porch pickup.

Need to get a staff member a gift and don't know where to start? Our staff have filled out a form of their favorite things, allergies, and classroom wishlists and it's all at your fingertips in a convenient spreadsheet. This spreadsheet will be updated with new entries, so check back to see your specific staff member responses. This is a great resource for all those appreciation days.
