HOPEWeek at NSMS launched on Dec. 16, bringing the school’s mission to reduce suicidal tendencies to the forefront. The week is focused on the goal of saving lives through the three-step Question, Persuade, and Refer (QPR) training.

To make sure students kick off their day on a positive note, Principal Ericksen will jingle silver bells from a fishing pole above students’ heads as they make their way through the morning rush every day this week.
