Knights' Weekly News
January 18-January 22, 2021
"Safety"
We all have been living in this COVID world since March 2020. Thankfully, a vaccine is in circulation and will be available to those who want it. In the meantime, we need your help to ensure we have a safe learning environment for all.
Over the last couple of weeks, we have sent out COVID notification letters informing you of positive staff and student cases. All of these cases were brought to our attention before these individuals reported to campus.
For the safety of everyone, we ask you to do the following:
- Keep your child at home if he/she is not feeling well
- Notify the school when your child is not feeling well
- Answer any phone calls from the school just in case your child starts to feel badly
- Encourage mask use whenever you are outside of your home
- Encourage your guests to wear masks when they visit your home
- Frequently sanitize your hands when you cannot wash them with soap and water
- Maintain your distance whenever you are outside of your home
- Talk with your child about the seriousness of COVID
We appreciate your support as we partner to keep Northbrook Middle School as safe as possible.
Your igKNIGHTed Principal,
Dr. HP Hyder, III

Knight Noteworthy Nuggets
Over 75% of our virtual learners participated in our MAP testing last week! Thank you for making sure we have data to show your child's progress since the beginning of the year.
Also, hats off to you for sending your in-person learners to school last week! Our attendance percentages were above 90% every day last week! Please continue to send your child to school every day when he/she is feeling well!
