Good Morning Novak Students and Families! 

Please review the information below to discover what is taking place at Novak. 

Dates to Remember

  • February 19 - No School - President’s Day

  • February 22 - Novak Exploration Day from 1-2:30 PM - Please sign permission slips

FASFA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) - For all students

PBIS February Theme of  Cooperation

Cooperation is working together as a team to reach a common goal.  You never know what knowledge or skill a teammate has that could help.  It's important to acknowledge that new ideas are always valuable.  A cooperative person is willing to share and listen and tries to resolve conflicts with others calmly.  Novak students will practice these skills while working on exhibits for a Gallery Walk for Black History Month.
