Used Book Fair:

NHE is collecting used books and DVDs to help RISD students and teachers.  Donating books and DVDs, that you no longer need, to the RISD Used Book Fair is a great way to support our district.  The proceeds provide scholarships for RISD students and teachers.  NHE will be collecting items up to January 28, 2010.  A collection bin is located outside the NHE office entrance.  Please note: No coloring books, encyclopedias, and/or college text books will be accepted.

Remember!

Friday, January 15 and Monday, January 18 are student holidays!

 

Thank you to Karen Denker (Will and Jon’s mom) for the generous gift certificates to Starbucks for teachers at faculty meeting drawings!   Teachers appreciate these gift certificates so much!  Please consider picking one up for our drawings when you are at a store.  Thanks!
