Full Scale Safety Drill:
North Putnam Schools along with the Putnam County Emergency Operations Center are performing a full scale active shooter exercise Saturday, April 8 on the campus of North Putnam High/Middle School. This is a full scale exercise and will include first responder agencies from Putnam and surrounding counties including Lifeline and other air ambulance services. The exercise provides North Putnam with the ability to train our safety plan, and assist first responders in how to respond to this type of devastating event. The NPHS/NPMS campus will be closed to the public most of Saturday in order to keep everyone safe.
It appears the storms took out the server for the MyStop app and the bus tablets. We are working to get it back on.

Congratulations to Chanlie Busch and Carson Chew, two fifth grade students that were recognized this week for winning the PIE essay contest. PIE stands for Prevention, Intervention and Education on drugs, alcohol and tobacco.
Our 5th grade class recently visited the 5th grade class at Bainbridge. We are creating opportunities this year for our 5th grade students to get to know the classmates they will be with at the middle school next year. Transitions can be hard on students. We hope this will alleviate some of the fears and anxiety that come with the transition to middle school.
It was Mario Week last week in STEM. Students are learning about Pixels as well as sharing in the experience of playing an old video game. A lot of fun! Thank you Mrs. McVay for providing fun, educational learning experiences in STEM class.
