Valentine's Day
Valentine's Day
Parents,
You should receive a dojo message from your child's teacher in regards to Valentine's Day at Northwest. Parties will be for students only so they can celebrate each other with valentines. Your teacher will have more information for you. Not on dojo? Please contact your child's teacher.
Also, we will not be accepting deliveries to Northwest. With the number of students that we have, it is not feasible to have deliveries. Thank you for understanding. If you have any questions, please reach out to our office staff.

Eating Lunch with Students
Eating Lunch with Students
5 parents/guardians a day to come in and eat with their children. Anyone who enters the building is required to present an ID to run through our RAPTOR system. If you would like to come and eat with your child any of these days, please click the link below to schedule your day and time. We look forward to seeing you! Please note that parents should only go to the cafeteria and not the classrooms. Thank you for understanding.
Please be aware that we will not be able to pull students from instruction to eat at a different lunch time. You might need to schedule multiple days if you are trying to eat with each child. Feel free to call the office if you have any questions. If you are a Watch D.O.G. scheduled for the day or a staff member at Northwest, you do not need to fill out the form below.
