Congratulations to Maddox Burnett who recently competed in the 2026 Louisiana State Swim Meet at LSU. He qualified for the 50-yard breaststroke, 100-yard breaststroke, and 200-yard freestyle. Additionally, he was selected for two team relays: the 12U 200-yard medley and the 10U 200-yard medley. During the preliminary round, he advanced to the finals in the 100-yard breaststroke, finishing 4th in his heat and 12th overall, and the 200-yard freestyle, finishing 18th overall! Way to go Maddox! Your NDUE family is proud of you! #LEADlikeaGriffin

Leadership Day is Coming!
Parents, we invite you to join us for Leadership Day and see our students shine! Through the Leader in Me program, students are learning important life skills like leadership, responsibility, teamwork, and goal-setting.
Come watch our students lead, share what they’ve learned, and showcase the positive culture they’re helping build at our school. You’ll also have the chance to visit our Annual Art Show, so be sure to stop by and check out your student’s amazing artwork! 🎨
While we hope all our families can attend, classroom space is limited, so we kindly limit guests to ONE per student for the classroom visit portion of our program.
Please RSVP by March 20 if you plan to come. Scan the QR code on the invitation to complete the RSVP form.
We can’t wait to celebrate our amazing student leaders with you! #LEADlikeaGriffin
