Happy Friday Citizens of Nellie!
As our days are starting to become warmer with more daylight, I would like to take a moment to wish everyone a wonderful spring break. This is a time for our students, teachers, and staff to take a well-deserved break to relax and recharge from the daily hustle. Whether you are traveling or remaining in the city next week, I hope you are able to find opportunities to connect with your families and loved ones.
