Tomorrow is ROCK STAR DAY at North Park! Let's have a great high attendance day tomorrow AND a fun celebration of our rock star students! Dress like a rock star, wear a guitar shirt, wear neon, etc. All students at school tomorrow will receive a fun prize from the office!
NPES Families: Read our family newsletter for the week! ROCK STAR DAY is coming up on Wednesday. https://app.smore.com/n/9vndp
Today we practiced all of our safety drills at North Park. This is a Kentucky mandate for the month of January. Our students did a FABULOUS job. We are utilizing a new system in our school district which allows our staff to update the status of students/staff via an app and enables the office to quickly communicate with teachers. It makes our drills efficient and helps us to account for the safety of every single child/adult. If your child mentions a fire, tornado, earthquake or lockdown, please just know that all of those alarms were only drills. As always, safety is our top priority!
North Park Families -
Since we are only a preschool/kindergarten school, there is a transition process for students moving to first grade. Please read the procedures for transitioning to FIRST GRADE as a North Park student. It can be a little confusing for families, so we want to outline the procedures for you now. Out-of-district applications for all schools are open now until February 28th. You MUST apply out-of-district if you want your child to attend a school other than your districted elementary school. Applying does not necessarily mean your child will be accepted to that school, so it is important to read the procedures carefully. We will have many transition events in the spring, so please look at the procedures now so that we can all be prepared to help provide a successful transition.

Good morning, NP families! There are many ways you can receive assistance today! Using the App and Rooms is the BEST way to communicate with your child's teacher. Many have already sent out instructions. However, if you need help, we have a dedicated cell phone you can call as our office isn't fully staffed today. You may also go to the NTI site for help (click on office help) and you may also email me. I will be at the school after 8:30, but these are the best methods for receiving help. Assistance is available from 7:30-2:30. Have a great day!
North Park Families - Tomorrow will be NTI instruction (no in-person school) due to the snow. Please remember that kindergarten students must participate by either completing the paper packet (NTI Day 2) sent home previously or by joining the Google Meets and Digital Choice Board. We strongly recommend all kindergarten students join the meets if they can so they can receive live instruction. Preschool families should join the google meets offered by teachers. If they cannot, they may complete the choice board sent home. All the information can be found at our school website:
https://northpark.hardin.kyschools.us/nti-info
Please be ready to communicate with your child's teacher or NPES staff tomorrow as you can.
Feel free to direct any questions to me (Mrs. Hayes) through this app or my email, laurabeth.hayes@hardin.kyschools.us
