A Message from the Principal:
Dear North Parents,
We had a week of joyful celebrations to honor the hard work and dedication of our teachers and staff. Thank you for all the kindness and support you have shown us. We also appreciate you and your students!
It’s Mother’s Day Weekend. Not all of us are mothers, but we all mother someone in our North family, because to mother someone means to “raise another with care and affection.” You all are part of our North family, and we are grateful that you help us take care of one another with love and affection. Happy Mother’s Day!
Take Care,
Dr. Kathryn C. Murray
