Dear Northwood Families,
In recent days, I’ve started to hear more birdsong in the morning and the sun is expanding its time in the sky. Spring is on the way!
We are thrilled to note that we have now successfully welcomed all of our grade levels back to in-person learning, from Pre-K, Kindergarten and 1st In-Person learning to 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 5th grade Hybrid learning. We also continue to support our learners whose families have chosen to keep them remote through our previously established Red Remote All year Kindergarten and 1st grade classrooms and our Streaming Learners in 2nd-5th grade. We appreciate the support of all our Northwood families as we have adjusted to the demands of pandemic learning and continued to grow in the ways we are connecting with our students to support their academic and social/emotional growth.
