Help us in welcoming Didi to East Noble School Corporation! Didi has joined our staff as a facility dog. A facility dog is a service dog placed in a facility where clients/students can benefit from her services. She is not a therapy dog. She is a two-year-old golden/labrador mix. Ryan Pepple was carefully matched with her by Canine Companions (canine.org). He and Didi have spent the last few weeks collaborating with professional Canine Companions instructors so Ryan could learn the best way to utilize his new partner and her amazing abilities. We are excited to have her a part of the team and can't wait for her to build relationships and be an exceptional facility dog for East Noble School Corporation.

Today, East Noble Middle School had the pleasure to be visited by Kendallville native, and retired teacher of 43 years, Trevor Tipton. He presented the students to his outstanding collection of Indian artifacts and gave them a brief history lesson on where they came from, how they were made, how the Native Americans survived, and iconic battles that happened within the surrounding Kendallville area. They also got to see mastodon bones up close that were passed down in his family. Students were able to get a hands-on experience with some of the artifacts as well.

Today, Rome City Elementary celebrated their first Roman Squad Day of the school year! They ushered in new students who either have moved into the school area, or a first-year student from Preschool to Kindergarten. The new students were placed into their squads, and everyone enjoyed some dancing, silly string antics, and more. It is going to be a great year for the Romans at Rome City!

Exciting news! Congratulations to East Noble Middle School as they were awarded $3,000 through the Dollar General Literacy Grant! This will go towards the Media Center at the middle school!

Mentorship plays a crucial role in educational environments, as demonstrated by the older students at North Side Elementary who took the initiative to guide the younger students through the school's basic procedures this afternoon. This procedure not only helps the new students acclimate to their surroundings but also fosters a sense of community and belonging. They showed the younger students how to properly wash their hands at the restroom, how to line up and act in the hallway, where to line up for their bus, and more.
