Caution! Caution!
Due to severe allergies among the students at NCS, the school requires that everyone avoid bringing any items with nut products, eggs that are not baked into an item or animals to the school. Our students' health depends on your cooperation. Thank you.
PARENTS OF NCS
The booth is up and running again this year with a few changes. Due to an accounting request by the Division we are only selling milk through milk cards. You can purchase them online at SchoolCash or at the school office. They are $10 per card and that gives the student 8 milk.
Unfortunately the vending machine is not working at this time. We hope to have it up and running as soon as possible. The booth is open every day at lunch time for students to purchase food items, drinks and snacks. Some of the items sold in the booth are subs, pizza pops, mini pizzas, KD cups, noodle cups, frozen treats, chips, granola bars, wagon wheels, pudding cups, juice boxes, water, along with many other treats. We have a few items for 25 cents and many items for 50 cents. All profits from the sales goes to the field trip accounts. Students from 5-12 are asked to take a turn working in the booth. The booth will be open until 12:15 every day.
