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!
