Hello to our Northpoint Families,
It’s school staff appreciation week across the country. We are celebrating and recognizing the work of each of our staff members and saying thanks.
There aren’t enough words to express my gratitude for our Northpoint team. Their dedication to students is exemplary. This year they have gone above and beyond in their work to support our children’s learning and well-being. If you are so inclined, please feel free to drop a note of thanks to any staff member who may have positively impacted your children’s lives this school year.
These final weeks of the school year are busy and full of springtime fun. Through it all, we continue our focus on health and safety. Thank you for the ongoing partnership between home and school in these final weeks of the school year.

Updates for Extended Flex Learning families
Greetings,
Happy May! The temperature was amazing over the weekend and a sure sign of what’s to come. I am thankful for the warm sun, green grass, new buds and blossoms. In honor of staff appreciation week, I would like to recognize the folks I work with each day through distance learning, in the schools and at the District Services Center. The commitment, dedication and extreme energy I witness every day makes me extremely proud. I share my thank you with our Spring Lake Park Schools staff!
This is a crazy busy time of year. You will be receiving notices from me as we wrap up our year of extended flexible learning. You will also be getting information about next year from your home school. It will continue to be important to read this newsletter in its entirety for updates.
If you have any questions, please reach out.
Take care,
