Hey all!

We had a couple parent questions about the upcoming Annual Band vs Choir Dodgeball Deathmatch, so we just wanted to put it all out there in one place for your convenience (a quick parent letter/flyer will also be going home with the kids in classes tomorrow).

What: Annual Band vs Choir Dodgeball Deathmatch
When: Tuesday, May 26th, 2026 (after school-4:45pm
Where: NMS Tetherball Courts (Between the NHS Tennis Courts and NMS)
Who: 6th, 7th, and 8th Grade NMS Band and Choir Students

Hope to see lots of the kids out there to round out the year with some good old dodgeball fun!

Secondly, if you weren’t able to make it out to the Final Blast a couple weeks back you missed a rocking show! The kids absolutely knocked it out of the park and Mr. Maura and I could not be prouder of the performance they put on! If you did happen to miss it or if you just want to relive the night, a link to the recordings of the show, along with pictures (a huge thank you Mrs. Norris and Mr. Schneider for taking those!) can be found here (link to Final Blast 2026 Pictures & Recordings; link to Norris 6th Grade Choir Pictures).

Finally, as the year winds down to a close, we just wanted to say one last huge thank you to all of you for all of the help volunteering, donating, chaueffering, etc. throughout the course of the year! We truly could not do it without your help and so on behalf of Mr. Maura, myself, and all of the students, THANK YOU!!! Hope you all have a wonderful final week of the school year next week and a fantastic summer!

-Mr. Norwood and Mr. Maura
