Good Afternoon,
The next BAC meeting will be on 12/10/21. This is a Friday at 9 A.M. Many of you have expressed interest in fundraising. So I have managed to have a representative discuss Friends of Northside which is an organization that raises money for the school.

Good Evening, NLC Parents,
I hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving.
I wanted to write and remind you to sign and return the parent CPS COVID-19 Student Certification and Verification Form. Thank you if you have already returned it.
If you missed the copy that was sent home in your child's book bag it is attached.
In the light of the current COVID surge and the possibility of a new variant making its way around the globe, we are reviewing the COVID health protocols with our students - wearing our masks properly, keeping distance, washing our hands or using hand sanitizer. I know many of you are doing this at home, too. And, thank you for reviewing the health screener daily. As a staff, we are complying with this, as well. Together we will provide the safest learning environment possible for our school community.
All the best,
Mrs. Ray

Students in Ms. Anderson's class have been learning about the scientific method. Today students practiced the scientific method by exploring three pumpkins of different sizes to answer the question, "which pumpkin has the most seeds?" Throughout the month students have completed activities to learn more about pumpkins. Today students also planted pumpkin seeds in our greenhouse and will continue to observe and learn more about the life cycle of plants. #specialeducation

As another school year comes to an end, we must take a moment to recognize the many partners that Northside Learning Center is extremely lucky to work with all year long. Thank you to all of our Community Based Instruction sites that allow us to enter their workplace on a weekly basis. You all provide a learning experience for our students that is literally priceless, and we look forward to maintaining these partnerships for years to come. Northside Learning Center also has many more partners that help contribute to the growth and success of our students, and we are forever grateful for your partnerships as well! One of Northside Learning Center's newest partners has made a huge impact on the students that participated in the program. A big thank you to John Panvino at Porretta's Restaurant for partnering with our school and students to create an outstanding work environment in their restaurant setting. One of our students, Chandelle, was able to create a story using her communication device to express how learning in the community makes her feel proud, accomplished, and extremely happy. So proud of you, Chandelle! Congratulations to the Northside Learning Center's Class of 2017!
Learning how to hold a tray and travel around the restaurant at Trattoria Porretta's. Community based instruction at its finest. Servers in progress!
