First grade wrapped up their fable unit by making puppets of their favorite characters to help retell the stories.
Fourth grade learned about being kind to people who are different today. They also celebrated their awesome attendance for August with Pizza at lunch.
Get those smiles ready! Picture day is Tuesday, September 10. All students will have their pictures taken even if you do not purchase a package.
Please help us keep all of our students safe by following these arrival and dismissal procedures. Thank you for your cooperation.
Our behaviors were awesome this week. We are so proud of this week's ticket winners.
Friday morning ticket winners for good behavior. These students were quiet in the halls, took turns, and helped other students.
DC students and 3rd grade students working together in PE! Having a blast!
We have been working hard on our behavior all week. Today one ticket winner from each grade level drawing got a prize to take home. These tornadoes are good examples for other students. Let's recognize their positive impact on our school and community.

Good Morning Norwood Families,
As we continue to keep safety a top priority for our students, we wanted to let you know that we will be conducting our annual, required lockdown drill on Monday, September 18th with law enforcement. This will occur at both school buildings. We are letting the students, staff, and families know about the drill in advance per Illinois State requirement. If you would like your child(ren) to opt-out of the drill, please notify the office. To opt out, you will need to either pick your student up near the drill time or bring them after the drill is complete. The drill at NES will begin around 8:30 am and NPS around 9:00 am. Since the entire building will be practicing the drill there is no place to sit your child if you choose to opt your child out. If you would like more information about the drill, please contact your building secretary.
Also please note, this is a traditional drill that has been completed in all the years prior, there are no special optics or sounds. Our local law enforcement walk the hallways to ensure our doors lock and our safety procedures are up-to-date.
Yours in safety,
Norwood Administration
