Hello fellow parents of the NDMS band/chorus. What a great year for the students, under the direction of Mr. Bragg and Ms. Griffin. I could hardly believe how much better they all sounded during their Spring concerts, compared to the beginning of this year. They have put in a lot of practice and effort into becoming a Trophy winning band and choir!! They became award winning at the Music in the Parks held in Pennsylvania this year. What an accomplishment! I think we can all agree that Mr. Bragg and Ms. Griffin spent countless personal hours working on making the students successful this year, and giving them a trip to look forward to. They met after school hours to coordinate several fundraisers, attended fundraisers, and continued to work behind the scenes without much recognition. While I'm sure they felt joy and pride, watching their investment multiply through these students, I cannot help but feel they deserve so much more. Personally, I would love to "bless their socks off" with a gift of appreciation, but I cannot do that alone. I would love to present Mr. Bragg and Ms. Griffin with a generous gift certificate to the Hyatt in Cambridge, so they can enjoy some much needed down- time and dinner with their significant other (and possibly some pool time for Mr. Bragg's little one). If you feel so inclined, I am looking for each member of the band/chorus to donate just $5-$20, depending on your current abilities, by this Friday June 7th, no later than Monday June 10th please. You can venmo me at @kelcan242 My phone number is 443-521-2640. Feel free to reach out to me by phone or text, to arrange other options. IF you trust your child, feel free to send to school in an envelope, and give to Trinity Lewis, to return to me at home. I will take care of obtaining the Gift cards, and Cards of appreciation, and sign them from the Band and Chorus students and their families. Thank you all for your continued support of the NDMS Music Boosters. It has been a great year! Kelley Travers NDMS parent

Mrs. Knoepfel science classes with their goat visitor from the University of Maryland Dorchester Extension and Ms. Erica Willing. The students learned about raising goats, what they eat, showing them, tagging them, and even giving them haircuts! The student loved learning about the goats and getting to pet her. I think the goat liked out students as well!

NDMS 6th Graders Experience Junior Achievement's Biztown
On Wednesday, 125 sixth graders visited JA Biztown to experience important aspects of work readiness, entrepreneurship, civics, and financial literacy This experience provided students with a solid foundation of business, economics, and free enterprise education within the context of a community. Students ran a business as producers, used banking skills with their payroll and made financial decisions as consumers with their earned income. You can tell by their smiles that the students had a great educational experience.
