Fabulous Friday

Friday was a very fun day for several of the students at NOMS because it was the reward day for the Paragon Fundraiser. Friday the PTSA, thanks to Jenny Stegeman hosted the "Money Pen" drawing for all students that sold 6 or more items, and the "Candy and Money Scramble" for all students that sold 15 or more.

Friday was brought great joy and delight to Ms. Berry's target class as they received a pizza party for being the class that sold the most product.

Congratulations goes to Sara Graviss for being our top seller - she sold 28 units!

Thank you again for supporting the Paragon Fundraiser.

Your NOMS PTSA!
