Bulldog Bulletin - September 2023 Edition

From the desk of Dr. Graham....

This is the first edition of a monthly newsletter from the Superintendent. This newsletter will provide our school community with updates and events from around the district. For more school information, we invite you to subscribe to our app from the app store, follow us on our social media feeds and to bookmark our website (www.northbabylonschools.net).

We hope that you had a great start to the school year. Our students and staff have been hard at work throughout the month of September. Students have been busy with their coursework and involved in the many extra and co-curricular activities that we have available here in North Babylon.

This year all district staff came together to start the school year with an inspiring session with Gian Paul Gonzalez. Gian Paul, an internationally renowned speaker and high school social studies teacher spoke to our staff and challenged all of us to be "All In" for our students. It was truly a great day, and you will see the theme of being "All In" revisited throughout the school year.

This Superintendent's newsletter is accessible in multiple languages. To view the newsletter in other languages, please use the translation dropdown at the top right of the page.

Have a great school year! I look forward to seeing you at our upcoming school activities and events.
