Ms. Young's students are doing a great job learning about their "Emotional Bank Accounts." What is the difference between a deposit and a withdrawal? #DreamBelieveAchieve #LIM
🎶Mrs. West's PK class had a fun time dancing and playing in free centers during Music class. At the beginning of the school year, teachers are focusing on teaching students how to have Safe behavior and Acting respectful with their classmates. Our Little Griffins SOAR behavior expectations are a great example of Habit 1: Be Proactive, I'm in charge of me. 😊 ♥️ 💙
Good afternoon NDLE Parents,
In an effort to continuously improve your carpool experience and your time spent in it, please adhere to this graphic. If turning left, to get onto Hwy 171 South, please turn left at the sign. If needing to turn right, to get onto Hwy 171 North, please continue straight to the smaller parking lot and around to turn right onto Hwy 171 North. There is also a buckle area forward to the right. Signs will be posted and people available for help. #DreamBelieveAchieve #WinningTogether

We are excited and blessed to have Mrs. Edwards join our NDLE Team this year. From day one, she has not skipped a beat. She was setting the tone and creating her class culture when she and her students discussed abundance versus scarcity, this morning. Her students know what is expected and what they are capable of from the moment they walk into the room. Mrs. Edwards and her students are the #DeSotoDifference #DreamBelieveAchieve
Good morning Little Griffin Family!
We have had a great first few days of school. In an effort to try to make your time in our Carpool Line more efficient, I am offering you another option to try to get back onto Hwy 171. I have dedicated four parking spots as a turn to get to Hwy 171 South. That turn is at the last island, at the end of the carpool line. My goal, is for you to be in and out, in a safe manner, and I thank you for your patience as we work through a year plus of construction, and coordinate with the other schools' traffic flow. Please follow the graphic provided. #DreamBelieveAchieve #WinningTogether
Thank you,
Mr. Tabor

We are all on a mission at NDLE, and Mrs. Meserole and her Little Griffins collaborated to develop their Class Mission Statement today! Through this, these young students are clarifying expectations, while also learning how to practice accountability. #DreamBelieveAchieve #WinningTogether #HighTrustLeaders

📚 👩🏫 Our fearless NDLE Instructional Leadership Team are headed back to Stonewall as 👑 Camp Champs 👑 from the DeSoto Summer Institute at Clara Springs 🏕️ . Assistant Principal Lindsay Burford said, "We had no WIFI, slept on bunk beds, and ate old school cafeteria food." All of these sacrifices were worth it to bring home the gold 🥇. At NDLE, we know our staff have the hearts of champions and now we have the hardware to prove it 😆. We are looking forward to the new year with our Little Griffins. Parents, know that your child is in the instructional care of CHAMPIONS! #DreamBelieveAchieve #DeSotoDifference
