NAPLES SCIENCE FAIR

Thank you to all of our Naples students who put in so much time and effort in creating such informative science projects. This process is a wonderful opportunity for parents and children to spend time in creating a hypothesis, collecting and analyzing data, as well as forming factual conclusions. Years from now students will still remember the science projects they did with their family members. Thank you to our Science Committee Chairs Julia Gough and Janet Moore for volunteering to coordinate this important activity. We also appreciate the community members Dr. Barbara O’Connor and Terri Bishop          who volunteered to judge the projects. Congratulations to all of our participants for a job well done! Please take your projects home by Friday, May 11 and plan on bringing them back to the cafeteria for Open House on Thursday, May 24.

SCHOOL SITE COUNCIL ELECTIONS

School Site Council is part of the Naples decision-making process. For the 2012-2013 school year, we will have 2, 2 year openings and one alternate position. Together we evaluate the past and plan for the following school year to make the best use of our resources. Issues ranging from school achievement, school climate, school safety, and budgetary items are discussed with implementation to follow. If you are interested in running, please pick up a form in the office. Upcoming Dolphin Dialogues will contain information on each candidate.

RETURNING NEXT YEAR

In planning for the 2012-2013 school year, we need to know the number of returning students so that we can determine our available openings. A space will be reserved for your son/daughter, however you will need to be in attendance the first day of school. If you are not intending to return to Naples for the 2012-2013 school year, please contact either Miss Flynn or Mrs. Olsson prior to May 18.
