Thank you Auburn University for sending Dr. Yadrianna Acosta-Sojo, Dr. Mark Schall, graduate students Diana Abbas, and Lucie Outlaw from the College of Engineering - Department of Industrial and Systems Engineering to teach 7th grade students in Mr. Browning's classes about exoskeletons. The students heard a presentation about exoskeletons used in industrial applications. The examples included passive and active exoskeletons. The best part of the day was the demonstrations. Students got to try out these amazing creations! This was a great opportunity for our students to experience real world examples of creative technology that can and will change the future of manufacturing, disabilities, and military endeavors.
Thank you so much Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority and Mu Tau Omega Chapter for our C.A.R.E. Cart. These carts contain all the essential hygiene products that a student might need discreetly.

🌱🎲 Forest Succession: The Ultimate Eco Challenge! 🌲🌳
7th Graders in Mrs. Fowler's Life Science classes are taking their life science studies to the next level with the Forest Succession board game! In this exciting game of survival, students step into the shoes of different plant species like the resilient Loblolly Pine or the aggressive Japanese Barberry, competing to thrive through natural disasters, ecological changes, and human impact. From volcanic eruptions to overcrowding, each roll of the dice brings a new challenge! Who will outlast the competition and claim victory? 🌋🔥🌪️

The student's in Mrs. Johnson's math classes completed a Brochure research project on Famous Black Mathematicians. The students chose a famous black mathematician to research. They learned about their occupation, family life, major contributions to mathematics, and other fun facts about their mathematician. After completing their research, the students used that information to create a brochure. These brochures can be found on the bulletin board in the 6th grade hallway at NLMS for others to read so they can also learn about these famous black mathematicians.
Last week NLMS FOCUS and Peer Helper programs hosted a Kindness Campaign. These students went above and beyond by hosting a McSpirit Night where they raised money to help students in need. They also wrote positive messages on stickers for the coffee cup sleeves at Cuppa Grace, welcomed students with kind words and posters at arrival, colored with Mrs. Davis’ class, and shared a “How to be Kind Online” presentation with all 7th and 8th grade classes.
We are so proud of them and are inspired by their dedication and commitment to helping make our school the best it can be!
