Weeks of December 26th-January 6th

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! 

Thank you for sending a gift in; we had a wonderful Christmas celebration! 

There will be no homework over break and no spelling test on the first week back. The new semester will begin when we return; report cards will be going home then as well. 

Thanks for all you do; I pray that you and yours have a wonderfully blessed holiday! Remember the Reason for the season!

Week of December 12th-16th

 What a beautiful Christmas program! I am proud of each of my students! I will be on vacation all next week so Mrs. Karen Jordan will be filling in for me. 

We will have a spelling test from list 15 on Tuesday and Wednesday as well as a History test on Tuesday. 

For our Christmas party, we drew names as a class so your child will need to purchase a $10 gift for the name they drew and bring it school by no later than Monday, December 19th. 

Thank you! 

Mrs. Stull

Week of December 5-9th

There will be a math test and a trial spelling test (list 14) on Monday. The Christmas play is Thursday at 10 am and 7 pm. You are welcome to pick your child up between the programs to allow them to rest since it is such a long day for them. Have a wonderful weekend!

Thanks,
Mrs. Stull

Week of Nov. 28th-Dec. 2nd 

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!!

Thank you to the families that sent in candy for our reward program; these kids sure love sugar! 

We will push our spelling test back from Tuesday and Wednesday to Wednesday and Thursday following Thanksgiving break to allow time to study. (No need to study over the break!) 

There will be no bible test until after the Christmas play. 

I am thankful for each of my students! 

Have a safe and happy holiday! 

Mrs. Stull

Week of November 14th-18th

Happy Veteran's Day! Thank you to all who have served or are currently serving our country right now! 

Our Thanksgiving Dinner will be next Wednesday, November 16th. Please join us! Also, we will be having a small celebration in our classroom that afternoon. 

The trial spelling test (list 13) will be on Tuesday and the final test is on Wednesday. 

If possible, please have your child bring a bag of candy to class. I use a ticket system for rewards; they eat more candy than I can buy! (Small items other than candy are welcome, such as erasers, pencils, etc.)

Thank you and have a wonderful weekend!

Week of Oct. 31- Nov. 4

10/24-28/2016

There will be no school on Monday, October 24!

NLCA will be holding a Zumbathon instructed by Shannon Hess as a fundraiser on Monday, November 7, 2016 from 6:00-7:00 p.m. It is $20.00 a person or $75.00 for families for 4 or more. Please spread the word.  All money goes into the NLCA PTF.

We have finished the first nine weeks of school.  The expectation of each student will be higher now that they are used to the routine. I would like to see each student more prepared for class each day by having everything they need at their desk for the day by the time the bell rings. Also, please encourage your child to wear deodorant to school; they sweat a lot in gym class and recess!

Tests: 

Tuesday: trial spelling (list 10)

Wednesday: spelling 

Thanks and have a wonderful 3-day weekend! 

Mrs. Stull 

10/17-21/2016

Congratulations to all of the literature fair participants! The effort put forth from each of my students did not go unnoticed. 

We will have a cumulative science test on Monday and a history test mid-week. We will have the trial spelling test on Tuesday and final test on Wednesday (list 9.) 

We have started the Book-It program. I sent home a sheet in which your child can mark off how many minutes total they read per month. If he or she reads for 180 minutes, (broken up into days) I will give them a ticket for a free pizza at Pizza Hut. 

Have a safe and happy weekend!

Mrs. Stull 

10/10-14/2016

We were unable to get to our math test this week so we will plan to have it next Wednesday. The literature fair will be on Monday. Tuesday will be D.E.A.R. (drop everything and read) day. Please have your child dress comfortably and bring a blanket and/or pillow if they would like to. Have them bring a few of their favorite books to read/have read to them. The trial spelling test for list 8 will be on Wednesday this week with the actual test on Thursday. They will be tested on 1 Corinthians 10:13 on Friday. Have a safe and happy weekend!

Thanks,

Friday is Grandparent's Day; students will be dismissed after the presentation and brunch. There are a few students that still haven't turned in their $5 to cover the cost of their grandparent's day crafts; please do so if possible.

Instead of chapel this week we will be participating in "See you at the pole" for prayer. The literature fair is October 10.

Papers have been sent home explaining how to access your child's grades online. If you are having trouble viewing them, please let know.

Thanks and have a wonderful weekend,

Mrs. Stull 

Parents, give your fifth grader a pat on the back...they all worked very hard this week! We learned a lot and I believe we had lots of fun! The class picture looked great as did each of your beautiful children! Be sure to ask your child about walking on raw eggs today! I would like to remind everyone that we will have our weekly spelling test on Wednesday with a trial test on Tuesday. We will be memorizing and reciting John 1:12 (some impressive self-motivators have already done so). If possible, please turn in $17 to purchase the planners this week if you haven't already done so. Please remember that the water bottles in class must be spill proof and we are not allowed to use cell phones or other media in the classroom at all. Lastly, I would like to say how impressed I am with the majority of the class for their efforts in and out of the classroom. Your hard work, kindness and helpfulness, is certainly not overlooked. Have a wonderful weekend!

Mrs. Stull

Congratulations on a wonderful first week of 5th grade! I would like to thank you parents for making that possible by preparing your child for class and purchasing the necessary supplies. I can honestly say that each of your children already have a very special place in my heart! Please note that picture day is next Friday, August 26th. Also, our Grandparent's Day Celebration will be on Friday, September 30th. There will be a trial spelling test on Tuesday and a final spelling test on Wednesday. Please help your child work on memorizing Romans 10:13 for the coming week as well. Thank you again and have a blessed weekend!

Mrs. Stull

I will be in the 5th grade classroom from 5:30-6:30 Monday, August 15th for an open house. Please join us to see the classroom and meet me as well as bring your supplies if you would like to. I look forward to meeting you all! Have a great weekend!

    Hi, my name is Cassie Stull and I am the new fifth grade teacher at NLCA this year! I am thrilled to have been given this opportunity and cannot wait to meet my students! We are going to have a blast this year as we learn! I hope you have had a wonderful summer so far! 
     I grew up in Nicholas County and graduated from Richwood High School. I then went to West Virginia University and graduated with a bachelor of science degree in biology. My husband, Luke, and I live in Mt. Lookout where we recently built our home and live with our son, Samuel, daughter, Sophia, dog, cat, and two fish! 
     My children will be starting pre-kindergarten and kindergarten this fall at New Life. My family is excited for this new season of our lives and look forward to what God has is store for us at NLCA. I am excited to learn and grow with you in the coming year! See you soon! 

Thank You,
