J. L. Newbern Middle School announces the 2023-24 Dance Team and Cheer Squad tryouts for upcoming 6th, 7th and 8th grade students.
They are looking for energetic, enthusiastic and efficient cheerleaders and dancers who will help spread school spirit at NMS! Everything you need to know to prepare for tryouts is included in the packets linked here (http://bit.ly/3yW4WNi).
This week's CPIE sponsor for Saturday School meals at Newbern was Godfrey Funeral Home. They provided hotdogs, chips, and a drink and delivered them already packaged for the students.
Even on a rainy Saturday, students showed up ready to learn, as their teachers have worked hard preparing lessons and activities in the areas of reading, writing, and mathematics. We are proud of the gains the students have already made since attending.
Thank you Godfrey Funeral Home for your support to Newbern Middle School! We appreciate you all!
