Important Update -- Bell Schedule Changes
2025 - 2026
We want to share an important update regarding the bell schedule for the upcoming 2025–2026 school year. The regular day schedule will remain the same, with no changes to morning routines or dismissal times. However, starting next school year, there will be a district-wide change to Wednesday minimum days. All schools, including Nesbit, will now include a full lunch period on Wednesdays, allowing students time to eat lunch on campus before dismissal. Please review the details below:
The regular day schedule will remain unchanged for the 2025–2026 school year. Morning Gathering will begin at 8:20 AM, followed by the start of breakfast and instruction at 8:25 AM. Kindergarten students will be dismissed at 1:30 PM, 1st through 3rd grade students will dismiss at 2:35 PM, and 4th through 8th grade students will dismiss at 3:00 PM.
Beginning in the 2025–2026 school year, there will be a new Wednesday minimum day schedule that includes a full lunch period for all students. Kindergarten through 2nd grade will have lunch from 11:30 AM to 12:15 PM, 3rd through 5th grade will eat from 12:10 PM to 12:55 PM, and middle school students (6th–8th grade) will have lunch from 12:15 PM to 1:00 PM. Dismissal for all students on Wednesdays will be at 1:05 PM.
Every morning, our entire school starts the day by meeting together in what is known as "Morning Gathering." Morning Gathering is a time for community building, life skills lessons as well as announcements. When we assemble in Morning Gathering, children line up by classrooms on the blacktop. Parents are welcome to join us!
