On Wednesday, December 13th, The New America School-NM will host its Q2 Scholars Night. This is a night for our faculty and staff to recognize our top scholars within their classes, as well as recognize students for the small moments that often go unnoticed in the day-to-day kindness, specifically focusing on our Student recognition system of ARISE (Accountable, Respectful, Integrity, Successful, Empathetic). We also recognize those students who make it their job to attend all of their classes with our Quarter 2 Perfect Attendance recognition. The students are nominated by the Faculty and Staff here at NAS and are presented in front of their peers, as well as the NAS-NM Governing Council. The Q2 Scholars Night will start at 6 pm.

Please join NAS-NM tomorrow morning at 7:30am for an exciting balloon launch! Everyone is welcome to attend.
