Curriculum night at Hawkins Middle School was a huge success, with so many of our families coming out to spend the evening learning more about the student experience at HMS. Families gathered in the gymnasium for an opening welcome from Principal Kalahan, then met staff and teachers while navigating their student's schedule by going class to class. Thank you to all who came out to hear about the great things happening at Hawkins!
Thank you to Brennan Hanson of Hanson Paint & Repair, Class of '02, who donated his artistic expertise and gave the NMHS Bulldog a fresh new look. We appreciate you!

Students at Belfair Elementary modeled the four pillars to Kinders and 1st graders at today's assembly that detailed the PBIS system (Positive Behavioral Interventions & Supports). Respectful, Responsible, Safe and Kind attributes were demonstrated as the students listened attentively to Principal Collins describe the matrix of expected behaviors. "Character is what you do when no one is looking," she explained to the students. "It is who you are in your heart." After an inspirational assembly, news of the return of the golden trash can was celebrated by the students. Mr. Connell led the crowd in a rousing Belfair Elementary song as they left the gymnasium by grade level; consistently displaying positive behavior.
Great job, Belfair Bobcats!
First Day of Kindergarten!
New students with siblings, parents and more,
taking their kindergartner to the front door.
Arms wrapped around and holding them tight,
waving until they are gone from their sight.
Some students and parents wipe away tears
but mostly the smiles override any fears.
It takes a village to get students their tools,
all of it here at North Mason schools.
Bobcats and Cougars joining the fold,
our utmost priority, their hearts to hold
We are so happy to have our new Kindergarten students join Belfair Elementary and Sand Hill Elementary. What a warm welcome they received from staff, administration and fellow students. The journey begins!
Big day for our new kindergarten students (and their families!) as they begin their educational journey with North Mason School District. Welcome...and have a great first day!
North Mason schools and District Office will be closed for Labor Day on Monday, September 4th. Enjoy the long weekend!
