Dear NES Families, Due to limited practice time caused by snow days and the recent professional development day, we have adjusted the format of the NES Talent Showcase. Instead of an in-person event on March 20, we will now be hosting a Virtual Talent Show! Students can record their performances at home and submit their videos using the link below. All submitted performances will be compiled into a showcase video that will air on April 11. 📅 Video Submission Deadline: Monday, April 7, by 11:59 PM 📩 Submit Your Video Here: https://forms.gle/toRw76AKVPpYe1JV8 As part of the submission, parents/guardians will need to give permission for their child’s performance to be included in the NES Virtual Talent Show video. We look forward to seeing the amazing talents of our North Star students!
