Declaration
Whereas, the vision, dedication, and determination of a school principal provides the stable force behind schools;
Whereas, principals have many roles in the education of their students and are entrusted with the dedication and development of young people; and,
Whereas, we recognize the outstanding elementary, middle level, and high school principals who have succeeded in providing high-quality learning opportunities for students;
Taylor Kivett, fifth-grade student, at Larsen Elementary won the book review contest on Biblionasium and will receive a full set of books as well as video chat with the author.
“I’m so excited I won! I think it's really great because I'm getting more books to add to my collection!” exclaimed Taylor. “I think Biblionasium is great because you can find new books, enter contests, and start challenges. It's a great way to log what you have read. I love it!!”
For those of you who are new to Larsen, we welcome you to our favorite month of the year. We love making our Halloween celebration like no other. And even though we have many more protocols because of COVID, we wanted to continue with our tradition because we know our students really look forward to it.
The Nebo Education Foundation is composed of 20 volunteer board members who live in cities serviced by Nebo School District. Board members meet each month to review and award grant requests, consider fund-raising avenues and other items that advance the educational opportunities for Nebo School District students. Many of the donations received are for selected projects, yet a substantial amount is available for the greatest need. Greatest need monies are considered for grants submitted by area schools.
Picture retakes will be held on October 26th. There are ordering packets in the office or you can also go to mylifetouch.com and use the ID code EVTRB4VR3. Please remember to send back the pictures with your student that you want to be retaken.
