#welcometoNMS


As our NMS family bid farewell to our beloved NMS PRO, Eric Daugherty, we are filled with immense pride. Your unwavering dedication to our school has left an indelible mark on all of us.💙🚓🚔
Through your time with us, you’ve taught us more than just the fundamentals of safety—you’ve equipped us with the confidence to face challenges and the awareness to navigate potential situations with care and vigilance. Your training and guidance have not only made our school a safer place but have also empowered each of us to take responsibility for our own security and that of those around us.🔐
While we are sad to see you go, we are also thrilled to see you take on a new and honorable role as sheriff. Your leadership, integrity, and commitment to service make you the perfect fit for this next chapter. We have no doubt that you will continue to make a profound difference in our community, just as you have here at NMS. In a special gesture of appreciation, our Student Council proudly presented Chief Deputy Daugherty with an honorary NMS Eagle T-shirt, officially making him one of us. From this moment forward, he will always be an NMS Eagle at heart, a symbol of strength, courage, and leadership that we strive to embody every day.🦅
Thank you for being our protector, our teacher, and our friend. You will always have a special place in our hearts, and we look forward to seeing all the great things you will achieve as sheriff. Congratulations, and best wishes on this new journey!👮♂️ #NMSfamily #eaglementality
