Please stand for the pledge of allegiance:

"I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America, and to the republic for which it stands, one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all."
 

The library is closed. Please drop off any overdue books to the box in the main office

Green Team wishes you all a wonderful and loving summer. Build friendship, go on an adventure, and keep helping make the planet healthy and clean. See you next school year!

Students remaining at a district school keep their Chromebooks and hotspots over the summer. This includes rising 8th graders who will keep their devices over the summer and then return their cleaned device for a new Chromebook at the beginning of their 9th grade year.

Important Note: If students are changing schools next year for any reason (including rising from middle to high school), their Chromebook and school district login will not work beginning July 9th (with the exception of students enrolled in summer programs who will utilize their technology on site). Access to student devices will be available again once students have returned to school in the fall and reset their passwords.

Have a great day Hawks!

Hawk Report from Prinicpal Rencher

6/14/24

Good evening, Nelsen families,

It’s hard to believe, but we’re down to our last 2 days of the school year. Due to the celebratory nature of the last days of school, school supplies aren’t needed for next week. So for the final 2 days of school, students are not to bring their backpacks to school. Please speak with your student to ensure they don’t bring their backpack to school on Monday or Tuesday next week. If a student forgets this and accidently brings their backpack to school, the backpack must be placed in our main office and the student can retrieve their backpack after the school day ends. Lunchboxes are perfectly fine and may be brought to school.

Our 8th Grade Celebration is Monday afternoon. The 8th Grade Celebration is not a formal ceremony. The event is designed to allow families and students to come and go at times that work with their schedule. Although the celebration begins at 4:00pm, families and students can show up anytime between 4:00pm and 7:00pm. During the celebration our 8th grade students and families are invited to take pictures at the photo booth, enjoy ice cream, pick up their 8th Grade Certification of Completion, and take pictures with their teachers, friends, and family.

For our returning families, our Nelsen Hawk Day is scheduled for Wednesday August 14. During Hawk Day, students and families can come to campus to get their schedule, take school pictures, purchase ASB, as well as walk the school to locate their new classes prior to the start of the school year. Please save the date of August 14th for our Nelsen Hawk Day. As we get closer to the event, additional details will be sent to our Nelsen families.

Our school nurse, Ms. Marcy Collier, asks all families that have their students’ medication here on campus to please come pick up their medication before noon on the last day of school on Tuesday. If you have any questions, Ms. Collier could be reached at marcelle.collier@rentonschools.us.

The following messages are from our Nelsen PTSA:
Field day for 6th and 7th grades is June 17th. We are set for the 6th Grade morning session, but still need help with 7th Grade from 12:00 to 2:00. Please sign up if you can help with supervision and treat delivery!

Last chance!  Sales end at 10:00pm tonight! We have received a donation of 4 tickets to the July 6th Seattle Sounders FC vs. New England Revolution game at 7:30 PM.Raffle tickets are only $10 each and you can buy them on the PTA website. The winner will be notified by email and posted on our website  Saturday, June 15th.
 

Enjoy your weekend.
