What is a scientist? A scientist is a person who discovers, sorts, measures, wonders, records, collects, asks questions, experiments, invents, observes, classifies.... a scientist is YOU!
NAC Elementary celebrated our curiosity and dreams for the future with DRESS LIKE A SCIENTIST DAY on Tuesday, November 16.

THE BOOK FAIR IS HERE!
The elementary library is hosting the book fair November 12-19, with the science theme: Story Laboratory - Reading gives you Super Power! Elementary students will visit the book fair during their regularly-scheduled weekly library class to make wish lists and shop. Parents can either send in money with the student or use eWallet, the digital payment option, which allows multiple adults the opportunity to put money on a student account to spend at the book fair. For more information or to set up an account, visit https://www.scholastic.com/bf/nacelementary Please seal cash in a zip bag labeled with your child’s name and “for book fair” to avoid confusion. Checks must be made out to NAC.
The funds from this fair directly benefit the students in the form of additional library books and other materials. A healthy library serves every student and promotes cross-disciplinary learning and information literacy. We appreciate everyone's support and look forward to a very exciting and successful event.
