As you may have noticed on the school calendar, there will be optional spring conferences on Friday, April 19th. All K-5 teachers will contact parents they feel they need to meet with, including your child’s math or reading teacher.

Of course, teachers are available via email and phone to discuss any concerns you may have and/or to schedule an alternate day and time to meet.

If you have any questions about Spring Conferences, please contact Ms. Hernandez.

It is a tradition for 5th grade students at Nova to present for their parents skits based on fables written by Aesop. The date for this year’s presentation is Friday, May 24th at 3pm. More information regarding these presentations will be available as the date approaches, but we want to make you aware of the date now and ask you to keep it in mind as you are making plans for your Memorial Day weekend. If you know that your child will have a conflict, please let his or her homeroom teacher know as soon as possible. Thank you!
