48 donors! Way to go Northside! Thank you students, parents, teachers and staff for helping us respond to the need. This blood drive was dedicated to our very own, Ms. Parmer. As long as she was able, Ms. Parmer gave blood, and during our fall blood drive, her classroom incentives produced the biggest turnout in NMA history. She continues to inspire us to respond to the needs of others with a spirit of generosity.

Congratulations Rishaan Koteel. He was a winner in the Sonatina Piano Festival in Enterprise! He is a first grade student in Ms. Poland’s class.

Third-grade students in Mrs. Fundum’s class celebrated Read Across America Week with a Read-A-Thon celebration and a STEAM challenge! After the class listened to the book The Lorax, the students were asked to build the largest Truffala tree with their materials. The students worked in groups to plan and design their Truffala trees. At the end of the activity, we measured to see who had the tallest Truffala! Students also enjoyed some delicious treats as they read their favorite books! Keep reading and designing, Carver Lions!
