In honor of Black History Month, Ms. Robinson's 8th grade science classes research a black scientist or engineer. This month's black engineer is Rodney Ellis, Ms. Robinson's father. Mr. Ellis graduated Cum Laude from the University of Alabama with a Bachelor of Science (BS) degree in Chemical Engineering in 1979. He was one of the first black students to graduate with a degree in Chemical Engineering and to be awarded with the Outstanding Chemical Engineer Award from the University. He worked at the Pulp and Paper Mill in Childersburg, Alabama from 1979-2019 (that’s 40 years). At the mill he worked under the following job titles:
Process Engineer--worked on problems running the mill’s existing product’s
Project Engineer--worked on specific projects mill wanted addressed
Customer Service Engineer--worked on specific projects customers wanted addressed
Production Line Manager--supervised a line to make sure it stayed running smoothly (more hands-on than process engineer)
The 2024-2025 school calendar is now available.

On Wednesday, NLMS hosted Dr. Rekha Chadalawada for Board Member Appreciation Month. Dr. Rekha was guided by Student Council officers as she visited several classrooms and learned about the Health Science and Peer Helper programs. Many students who have been lifelong patients of Dr. Rekha were able to greet her as well. We are very thankful for her service and leadership for Sylacauga City Schools.
