Principal Duckworth's Notes

Hello Northglade Families,

This week, our E2 students, (4th & 5th graders), will head off to Sherman Lake Camp, Monday, November 17 through Wednesday, November 19. The buses will be leaving promptly at 9:30 am.

We are still in need of three or four parents, to assist loading the student's luggage on the busses.

Please make sure teachers have all medications, labeled with the students name, and a detailed instructions for dosage.

Students will return on Wednesday, November 19, tired and ready to see their families. Please make arrangements to pick up your student(s) and take them home upon their return to school. They will be ready for pick up at 12:00 noon. You will need to sign your child out before they leave and gather all of their belongings.

Below I have attached some reminder information regarding departure and a packing list.

Girls Scouts

Northglade Girls Scouts will have a Troop Meeting on Tuesday, November 18 in the library after school. This meeting will take place from 4 :00 pm to 5:30 pm.

E1 Field Trip

The E1 students will be going to watch The Remember Balloons, live, at the Comstock Auditorium to watch a performance on Tuesday November 18. They will be leaving shortly after 9 a.m. Please make sure all students are here on time to that they can make it to the field trip. Students will return to Northglade at 11:00 am.

Winter Gear

Please make sure students are prepared daily to go out doors for recess. Living in Michigan, it is very important that we pay attention to the weather daily. Students will continue to go outside unless the windchill is 10 degrees or colder.

Please make sure students have what they need to play in the snow. This includes, coats, snow pants, gloves or mittens, hats and possibly scarfs.
