Northside Elementary School -

Good afternoon! As Valentine’s Day approaches, we want to share an important reminder about keeping our classrooms focused, safe, and distraction-free during this special season of celebration. While we recognize the joy that comes with sharing Valentine’s gifts like flowers, balloons, or other items, we kindly ask families to avoid sending these items to school. Our students look forward to celebrating tomorrow at school with a Valentine's Day Dance and on Saturday, February 14th with you! Thank you so much and have a great day!
