🐬🎨💙 Our talented 5th grade students have been hard at work in the art room with Mrs. Todd creating a very special legacy project for North Augusta Elementary! 💛🐠

Working together in groups, students designed and painted beautiful ceiling tiles to match our “Under the Sea” theme. Each tile is filled with creativity, teamwork, and Dolphin Pride! 🌊🐙🐟

These amazing works of art will remain on display for years to come, serving as a lasting reminder of this wonderful group of students and the memories they made at NAUES. We hope our future graduates will one day return, look up, and proudly find the tile they helped create! 💙✨

A tremendous thank you to Mrs. Todd for inspiring our students’ creativity and helping them leave their mark on our school in such a meaningful way! 🎨🐬

🐬💛💙 Happy National School Nurse Day! 💙💛🐬

Today, we proudly celebrate and honor our incredible school nurse, Nurse Nicole, for the care, compassion, and dedication she shows to our students, staff, and families each and every day. National School Nurse Day recognizes the important role school nurses play in supporting student health, safety, wellness, and academic success—and Nurse Nicole truly goes above and beyond in all she does!

From caring for sick students and comforting worried hearts to helping keep our school healthy and safe, Nurse Nicole is a vital part of our NAUES family. Her kindness, patience, and willingness to help others never go unnoticed. She is often one of the first smiling faces our students see when they need encouragement, support, or care. 💙

Thank you, Nurse Nicole, for the countless ways you serve our school community with love and dedication. We are so grateful for all that you do to help our Dolphins learn, grow, and thrive each day!
