All students must have physicals before participating.

NMS Back to School Immunization Reminder

All middle school students that will be 11 years old by Sept 1, 2020 need to receive the required TDAP vaccine once they have their 11th birthday.

All 7 graders need to receive the required meningococcal vaccine.

Both of these are state required immunizations.  All students need to be compliant with their immunizations prior to the start of school in August.

Cross Country Meeting

Because of graduation this week, we will NOT have a parent/athlete meeting for cross country this week.

The meeting for parents and cross country athletes will be Monday, July 6th at 6:30pm in the Norphlet Gym. We will be discussing schedules, physicals, eligibility, expectations for athletes and parents, and signing up on the new DragonFly for AAA.

This is a very important meeting for both athletes and parents! Then practice will officially start July 7th!

In Case of Rain

According to the local forecast, there is a chance of rain and possible thunderstorms disrupting the graduation ceremony on Friday, July 3, 2020 at the Buckaroo Football Stadium at 8:00 p.m. 

In the event of inclement weather, the graduation ceremony will be rescheduled for Sunday, July 5, 2020 at the same location and time. 

We hope the weather is not a factor and it is our expectation to hold graduation on July 3rd as planned.
