Nothing matters more at The New Century School than its community of students, teachers, staff, and families. That’s why TNCS Director of Student Support Alexis Watson has done it again: pulled off another wildly successful Spring Festival that brought everyone together for a day of fun! Her inaugural event last year was what everyone thought would be an unparalleled success, that is, until she surpassed even that triumph this year!

On Tuesday, April 30th, TNCS primary students followed by elementary and middle school students once again took to the parking lot for games, activities, fun food, and even some wildlife! They even had perfect weather, with temps feeling more like summer than spring, which added even more to the general holiday feeling.

Many vendors and stalls returned, back by popular demand, such as the bouncy house, a Kona Ice truck, a photo booth, a hot dog and snacks table, and Mary’s Go-Round Petting Zoo, plus all the games and activities students could want. But wait! we said surpassed right? New this year were a dunk tank (thanks, dads, for volunteering to get soaked!) for the big kids and pony rides for the little ones! And, once again, Sistahs’ Sweets food truck put the icing on the cupcake.

As one parent wrote in by email, “Ms. Watson: Once again you’ve created unforgettable memories for our kids.  It was a fantastic event and thank you for everything you do for them.”
