It is that time of year! Starting this Friday, be sure to check out the Oshkosh North Plant Sale! The horticulture classes have worked very hard to provide quality plants at a reasonable price, making this a great opportunity to stock up for the season.

Please note that there is no parking behind North High School; however, you may pull up briefly to load your plants. Be sure to follow the directions provided on the sale flier.

New this year: porch pots! Choose from premade arrangements or have one made to order to suit your space and style.

We look forward to seeing you in the greenhouse!

👉🔗 North Booster Club Golf Outing Information

We would like to provide an update regarding the gym floor renovation project.

The old gym floor has now been completely removed, and the required “off-gassing” process has also been successfully completed. The next phase of the project — construction and installation of the new gym floor — is expected to begin in late May or June.

At this time, the project remains on schedule (knock on wood!) with the goal of having the gym ready for use for fall sports.

Thank you for your continued patience and support throughout this process. We look forward to welcoming everyone back into the updated gym later this summer.

Class of 2026 as we approach graduation, we are committed to ensuring our commencement ceremony is a meaningful and inclusive celebration of every student's hard work and dedication.

Based on recent feedback and a review of our commencement traditions, we are pleased to announce an update to our ceremony protocols. Moving forward, the district will announce the names of all students who have achieved graduation status, regardless of their ability to attend the ceremony in person, if they wish to have their name announced.

If your student is unable to attend the commencement ceremony but would still like their name to be read aloud during the ceremony, we ask that you officially notify us through this Form. This form only needs to be completed if your child cannot attend the ceremony, but would like their name announced as a graduate of the Class of 2026.

The deadline for completion of this form is May 15th. Please reach out to your child's administrator for any additional questions or concerns.
