Orchestra Final Concert

Submitted by lindsay.robison on

Thank you all for attending the concert last evening.  Your kids were amazing.  There were times in rehearsal where it just wasn’t happening.  However, they pulled it through and performed every number the way I knew that they could.  It was marvelous to be able to help them present that for you yesterday.  I hope that you enjoyed the fruits of their labors.

Treasure Celebrations at Spanish Oaks

Submitted by kali.brown on

Every week teachers have been sending the name of someone in their class who has been a "treasure" that week.  We have announced their name(s) on Friday morning and invited them to come to the office for a special "thank you"!  Each weekly recipient added their personal quilt square to the “We Matter” quilt we have hanging outside the main office!!  In each classroom the teachers kept track using our "coins" of all the times their students act in a treasured way ...  At the end of the month teachers turned in these totals and the winning class earned a 'thank you' reward

A ginormous THANK YOU to our amazing PTA for another outstanding carnival!  Thank you to everyone who came out to support our school!  A special "thank you" to the many, MANY people who helped, i.e., teachers, parents, faculty, staff, and our entire PTA Board.  A huge "shout out" to Kelly Burtenshaw for organizing this event, along with the wonderful ladies who provided delicious food, exciting games, phenomenal gift baskets, etc.  Our first, and hopefully annual, Spanish Oaks Got Talent was amazing ...

FREE eBooks for the Summer

Submitted by kali.brown on

Nebo School District is gearing up for summer break.  While summer presents an opportunity to relax and enjoy the sunshine, we want our students to continue to find ways to learn while away from the classroom.

We have an exciting reading service available through OverDrive.  The OverDrive collection provides free 24/7 access to eBooks and audiobooks.  What better way to engage your student’s mind than through reading!
