Today, we received a VERY special delivery! We have FOUR ELVES straight from the North Pole and we need help naming them! Please have your student log in to the NDUE Griffins class in Google Classroom to cast their votes and name our elf friends!
We are so excited for our elves to join us for "Christmas at the U" Monday, December 4th from 5:30-8:00 pm. We hope to see you all there!

We cannot fail to mention how grateful we are for our superstar school nurses! Nurse Shannon & Nurse Penny are vital to the success of our school day and we appreciate how much love and respect they show to each student. Thank you, thank you, thank you for all you do!
We hope everyone has enjoyed their Thanksgiving Break! We look forward to seeing all of our students when we return to school on Tuesday!
Just a reminder that tomorrow is a VIRTUAL DAY for students, as we will be having Student Parent Teacher Conferences at the school. Open House Conferences will be from 3:30 - 6:00 PM. Students are encouraged to attend and share the portfolio they have created to showcase all of their hard work so far this quarter. There may be a surprise incentive for any student that attends... 😄 See you soon, Griffins! ❤️💙❤️💙
We have the best support system at NDUE! Our whole community is part of our recipe for success. We are thankful for each of you!
Happy Thanksgiving! We are thankful for every student that makes up our Griffin family! We hope each student enjoys a restful day surrounded by those they love.
Our school would not be the same without the hard work, diligence, and care of our fabulous custodial staff! We are beyond grateful for each of you and all you do!
We are grateful for our resident teachers that have stepped up in their classrooms to learn and grow with those students. We are so glad that you are here!
Our amazing second-grade team showers their students with love and care every day! With passion for education and warm smiles, they create a nurturing environment where every child feels valued. We are grateful for you ladies and hope you enjoy every day relaxing in those pajamas this week!
We are grateful for our master teachers, Mrs. Parker & Mrs. Gibson. The time and effort they pour into content coaching, curriculum support, and mentoring teachers is greatly appreciated! We are also thankful for Mrs. Asbell, our counselor for providing exceptional support in growing the whole child, focusing on academic needs as well as social-emotional learning!
Our extraordinary special education team embraces uniqueness and fosters endless possibilities! With unwavering dedication, they empower each student to shine bright, celebrating every milestone along the way. NDUE is thankful for this team!
We are beyond grateful for the parents that serve on our PTO! For the countless hours spent fundraising, working concessions, planning events, and simply loving our students... THANK YOU!
Our amazing 5th-grade team doesn't just teach, they inspire excellence! With high standards and unwavering support, these ladies empower students to reach for the stars. We are so thankful for each of you!
Our fabulous third-grade team is on a mission to explore, grow, and succeed together! They work hard to spark curiosity and pave the way for students to become lifelong learners. We are thankful for these teachers!
Our incredible fourth-grade team is all about supporting students on their individual paths to success! They're dedicated to reaching each and every student, nurturing a love for learning in every heart. We are beyond grateful for all of you ladies!
Without our enrichment team orchestrating all the fun, we could not host our community in the scale we do. They are known as the ultimate party planners but they are powerhouses in their classrooms as well. No one can motivate students to read like Mrs. Burback, hold students accountable for learning while keeping science fun like Mrs. Beeman, develop fine motor skills and a love of art like Mrs. Fontenot or support of love for sports and staying active like Mrs. Loupe and Mrs. McClain. This team makes our world a happier place and we are so grateful for them!
We are blessed with the best support staff at NDUE! Their willingness to serve and support is unparalleled. They're always willing to contribute wherever they are needed. We couldn't function without each of you!
