CASINO FUNDRAISER WAS A HUGE SUCCESS!

THANK YOU to all of the people that gave their time last weekend during the Casino Fundraiser. Each person that helped raised approximately $2500 so in total, we should receive approximately $75000, which is amazing! We will find out the official total raised in a few months. We will update you when we have more information. All of the students in our school will benefit from their gift of time.

Pumpkins, Pumpkin Carving Contest, Halloween

HALLOWEEN AT NORTHERN LIGHTS SCHOOL 

Just a reminder that classes will be fully engaged in regular learning activities on Thursday, October 31. If students are planning to dress up in a costume, it cannot interfere with their learning and must be comfortable enough for them to fully participate in the learning day. We ask families to please remember students MAY NOT:

            -   wear full face costume masks 

-   bring costume accessories (ie. weapons) 

-   spend instructional time putting on costumes or makeup 

-  bring candy, treats or other items to share with their peers or class
