Dear NES Families,
I am writing to share a bittersweet update with you. Our assistant principal, Mrs. Briney, has decided to pursue a new opportunity beyond NES, with her last day being December 19th. While we are sad to see her go, we are incredibly grateful for the time, heart, and dedication she has poured into our school community.

During her time at NES, Mrs. Briney has loved our students deeply, supported families with care and compassion, and truly embraced what it means to be part of the NES family. Her impact on our school is meaningful and lasting, and we know she will continue to do wonderful things in her next chapter.

Please rest assured that all current supports and structures will remain in place. Our administrative team is already working on next steps to ensure a smooth and steady transition for students, staff, and families.

We wish Mrs. Briney the very best as she moves forward and thank her for the service, joy, and dedication she brought to NES.

Thank you, families, for your continued partnership and trust.
