This Week in Pictures at Normandin Middle School

Heading for Greatness Week NBHS Guests

Each term we celebrate our student successes by hosting a breakfast for all students with B's or better and/or perfect attendance.  All parents and guardians are invited. New Bedford High School sends over successful seniors to speak to our students and answer questions about the high school experience.  We'd like to thank NBHS students Rebecca Mills, Eric Boulay, Chaysen Cabral and Eldric Abreu (pictured above) for sharing their inspiring stories and taking the time to visit our students and their parents table to table.   They spoke about overcoming obstacles and how show choir, sports, hanging with the "right" people have helped them succeed.  They spoke about the colleges they will be attending and AP courses they took.  Congratulations to all, nice job!

Student Spotlight: Hope Leonor

The 21st Century has been working on raising blankets, pet food, toys, and cleaning supplies for the Humane Society of the South Coast. Hope Leonor is a very dedicated member of the 21st century Community Service Club. She never misses a meeting and is always willing and eager to help others. Her mom recently came in with a huge box full of pet food, cleaning supplies, towels, and toys for the drive. Hope explained that she worked with her dad who is a local contractor over February  vacation. She explained she had worked hard and  helped him to sheet rock. She took all of the money that she earned and used it to buy her donations for the animal shelter! Her parents, Mr. Martins, Mrs. Simmons, and Ms. Barry are all so proud of her generosity, work ethic, and her compassion towards helping others!
