Our favorite day of the year! Thank you to our wonderful Food Service Staff, Ms. Julie, Ms. Michelle, Ms. Kay and Ms. Christy for preparing and serving a wonderful Thanksgiving feast!

Water has overtaken many of the roads in the Northwest School District today. Currently, the Big River is set to crest at 28’ at 6:00 p.m. tonight. We would not have time for the water to recede and for us to have adequate time to check roads before morning buses. Therefore, we are going to have another (Alternative Method of Instruction) AMI day Thursday, Nov. 7, 2024.


Dear Northwest Families,
We have been monitoring the flooding and watching the forecast of the Big River. Several roads in the district are impassable and the Big River will crest during school hours tomorrow. Out of an abundance of caution, we will have an Alternative Method of Instruction (AMI) day November 6, 2024.

Here is the schedule for Math and Munchies next week!

We visited a few classrooms at Cedar Springs Elementary this morning to see what our students were up to. From kindergarten students practicing their upper and lower case letters and alphabetizing to students working on their reading, writing, and math, our students are ready and eager to learn.









Homecoming Spirit Week starts next Monday, October 7th!


Congratulations to this week's #TeacherProudTuesday honoree, Cedar Springs Elementary reading resource teacher Heather Allen!

Ms. McPherson's third grade students at Cedar Springs Elementary are doing a sweet writing activity today called "7up and M&Ms."
Students were given a small amount of M&Ms., and were asked to write sentences with seven words or more. For each seven word sentence they write, they get to eat one M&M. The students loved the activity, getting to practice their writing skills, and especially the M&Ms!
