Saturday, September 19th, from 4-7pm, is the Annual Nettle Creek Pork Chop Dinner!
This year, your delicious dinner helps support the Nettle Creek Fine Arts—so come hungry and help us make a difference for our students!
Bring your family, bring your friends, and bring your appetite! We hope to see you at Nettle Creek this Saturday for a great meal and an even greater cause!
We are excited to share that Nettle Creek School has added a 10-passenger van to support extracurricular activities and special programs for our students. This new resource will provide additional flexibility and opportunities for students to participate in activities beyond the school day.
The purchase was made possible through the generosity of our Nettle Creek PTO, with funds raised through the Wine & Stein event, along with the School Board’s approval to utilize local revenue funds.
We are grateful to our PTO, School Board, and entire school community for their continued support. This is another great example of how our school and community work together to provide meaningful opportunities for our students.
