Inside: District and Northtowne Upcoming Events
All Aboard the Pathway Express!
Columbus City Schools (CCS) students will once again have an opportunity to sharpen their skills through immersive, hands-on lessons, while also experiencing some of the city’s top family-friendly sites during this year’s Pathway Express initiative.
The community-based learning experiences kick off in October with exploring the Ohio History Center. CCS families and students participating in Pathway Express will gain many benefits from the experiential learning opportunities. Benefits can include fun activities, author visits, book giveaways, prizes, and more! If you are unable to attend during the kick off event, all CCS families are offered free admission to the Ohio History Center and the Ohio Village throughout October!
One elementary school and one middle school with the highest attendance at Pathway Express kick off events this year will win an AUTHOR VISIT for their school! When you attend make sure to visit the CCS table to register that you participated and represented Northtowne. It would be amazing if Northtowne wins this special experience!
