Northwood Middle School

Northwood Middle School Welcome to the official GCSD page! Northwood Middle has a long-standing commitment to excellence. Every classroom is equipped with a Promethean Board.

Northwood Middle School was opened in 1965 as a combination elementary and middle school. In 2008 NMS moved into a new building, which came equipped with state-of-the-art technology. There are three computer labs, as well as three portable computer labs. We presently have approximately 835 students with 55 teachers. The purpose of Northwood Middle School is to assist all students in attaining thei

r fullest potential as a contributing member of society. We believe that each student has unique abilities and the potential for learning. The home, community, student, and school share responsibility in the learning process. The home, community, student, and school will work as a team. Learning is a continuous and life-long process. The school will promote respect, responsibility, and integrity. The inclusion of cultural diversity enriches the learning environment. Content Disclaimer:

☀️SUMMER SPOTLIGHT!☀️

Please join us in giving a warm Northwood welcome to Cindy Fry, who will be joining our staff this fall as our new school nurse! We're excited to have her as part of the Northwood family. Be sure to give this post a "like" and leave a comment to help welcome Cindy to our school community! 🎉

Cynthia (Cindy) Fry was born in Georgia and moved to Greenville, South Carolina, during the second grade. She attended Donaldson Elementary School, Northwood Middle School, and Eastside High School.

Cindy is a proud mother of two daughters and MiMi of four grandchildren, who bring great joy to her life. Family is at the center of everything she does, and she treasures every opportunity to spend time with her children and grandchildren.

A registered nurse with more than 20 years of experience, Cindy has dedicated her career to caring for others. She believes nursing is more than a profession--it is a calling. Throughout her career, she has been passionate about helping people, advocating for patients, and making a positive difference in the lives of those she serves.

Outside of work, Cindy enjoys reading, crafting, and creating handmade items. She is currently exploring opportunities to grow her passion for crafting through an online boutique featuring personalization and handcrafted creations.

Cindy resides in the Blue Ridge area of Greer, South Carolina, where she enjoys spending time with family, pursuing creative projects, and embracing new adventures. As she begins the next chapter of her nursing career as a school nurse, she looks forward to continuing to serve her community while making a lasting impact on the lives of students and families.

"I believe every season of life brings new opportunities to learn, grow, serve, and make a difference." -- Cindy Fry
