NES Foundation News & Notes Greetings!
The Nickajack Foundation Board is excited to introduce the start of our Back the Jack Fundraising Campaign which officially kicked off on Tuesday, September 4! Letters were sent home in this week in the Tuesday  red folders, but if you did not receive one (or it is buried in your child's backpack :), you can learn more below or by visiting http://nesfoundation.com/back-the-jack/. Through the Back the Jack Campaign (great new name!), the NES Foundation hopes to raise over $60,000 to continue to fund curriculum-focused, educational enrichment programs not covered by the Cobb County budget. In the past two years, thanks to the support of Nickajack parents, staff and friends, we have been able to fund several beneficial educational programs and services (click the link above for more details on the good your donation can do!). The official Back the Jack Campaign ends on October 5th. All contributions must be received by this date to be included in the classroom participation count (details on what the winning classroom and teacher will receive are coming soon) and to be acknowledged in the yearbook. BUT, you can donate at any time at: http://nesfoundation.com/back-the-jack/. And don't forget to check and see if your company has a Corporate Matching program. Here is a list of companies...is yours on the list? |

Welcome & Thank You 2012-2013 NESF Friends of the Foundation & Sponsors |
As we embark on the 2012-2013 school year, we would like to thank our 2011-2012 NESF Sponsors for your support!  We had a successful year thanks to your support for our school and students. We would now like to introduce our first 2012-2013 Friend of the Foundation Sponsor - The Childs Law Firm LLC and bizdisputeattorney.com! We thank you for your support and look forward to working with you throughout this year and, hopefully, years to come! As a Nickajack family or friend, you can help us thank these businesses for their commitment to supporting our students, our school and our community by giving them your business when you have a need for the products or services they provide. Find out more about each one by clicking on their logos to the left and you will go directly to their websites. In addition to our Friends of the Foundation program, we are offering the opportunity to sponsor the individual Foundation events being held this year which include the Kickball Classic, Golf Tournament and Casino Night.

Introducing NESF Friend of the Foundation: The Childs Law Firm LLC / Bizdisputeattorney.com |
The Nickjack Foundation would like to thank Kimberly Childs, founder of The Childs Law Firm LLC and bizdisputeattorney.com by showing her support for our school as a Nickjack Friend of the Foundation.  Through her sponsorship, Ms. Childs is helping to improve the educational experience for all students by contributing to the funding of curriculum-based programs and student services. If you have the opportunity to meet Ms. Childs, please be sure to say thank you. You can also show your gratitude by contacting The Childs Law Firm LLC should you need legal representation if involved in a dispute with a business partner. Ms. Childs has two children at Nickajack. About The Childs Law Firm LLC It's not just ANY business. It's YOUR business.
Trust among business partners is essential to success. When you discover that your business partner is not deserving of that trust, you need attorneys who focus on resolving business disputes. The attorneys at The Childs Law Firm LLC represent business owners in disputes with their business partners and focus on helping business owners resolve their differences and remain in a productive partnership. And should it come to a "business divorce," The Childs Law Firm will help you throughout the process of parting ways - whether amicably or not.
