ATTENTION: Currently, the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine is authorized for use in individuals 16 years of age and older. The Clinton County Health Department expects that the authorization for use will soon expand to include children 12 years of age and older. In anticipation of this change, we would like to gauge the current level of demand for Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine in these age groups. Please complete this survey ONLY if you would grant permission for your child to receive COVID-19 vaccination at their school OR if your child has already been vaccinated. Please complete only ONE survey per household. Click on the following link to access the survey: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/ClintonCOVID-19VaxSurvey

Athletic Uniform Notice - Due to the abrupt and unexpected cancellation of our 2019-2020 season because of Covid-19 we were unable to collect many of the uniforms from our players. We would appreciate it if you could help us out and contact Mr. Witkiewicz at 518-594-3962 or by email rwitkiewicz@nacs1.org if you still have a uniform at your residence. We would be happy to make arrangements for their return. We appreciate your help!

Key Club members and Elementary students recently created more than 400 Valentine cards/pictures which were delivered to area Nursing Homes. Key Club wanted to spread a little cheer to residents who can not have visitors at this time and decided to send Valentines to Meadowbrook. The idea was shared with Elementary staff, hoping to get enough cards to send to other nursing homes. Faculty and students overwhelmingly responded and cards were dropped off at Meadowbrook (185 items), Clinton County Nursing Home (100), CVPH Skilled Nursing (70), and Vilas Home (50). Key Club created 125 cards and the Elementary students made 280! Special thanks to Ms. Latrell and her art students for a beautiful variety of cards and the Valentine box as well as to Ms. Vanier, Mrs. White, Mrs. Matthews, and Mrs. Spoor for their classroom contributions. Pictures are of two Key Clubbers and their creations, cards made by Key Club, and the many Valentines and box from Elementary students.

DELIVERIES/PICKUPS: Attention families Please remember to put a container at the end of your driveway for deliveries and pickups on the designated days. Drivers will be dropping off food/materials and picking up materials from these bins only. It can be a safety issue to walk down driveways and porches, etc. Thank you for your cooperation in this matter.

Pandemic or not, it’s the most wonderful time of the year. Faculty and staff at NAC wanted to celebrate with students even at a distance. To build excitement hallways and doors were decorated with festive themes from A Christmas Story to Scrooged. Our holiday spirit week included dressing as your favorite Christmas character, making gingerbread houses, and our first ever intercom bingo. Our traditional holiday concert and art show were not possible this year. Mr. Loughman, Ms. Hayes, Mr. Blondo, Ms. Marrero, Mr. Strack, and Mr. Patenaude worked together to spread some holiday festivity to our NAC community by performing a holiday concert for everyone to enjoy. Please click on the link below to enjoy their concert. The administration, school board, faculty, and staff would like to wish our NAC community a safe, happy holiday season. https://youtu.be/gqbNHsXcv4U
