Cougars Can "Fill the Bus Campaign"
 Well, we did it!!! Our food drive was a huge success this year!! Bigger than it's ever been!!! Not only did we FILL a school bus, but we also sent 2 pick-up trucks full of food over the Northland Food Bank. Food will be distributed to local area food banks and to churches in the Northwest Houston area. Your generous donations mean so much to so many and will make a difference in people's lives. Thanks to all those who helped make our food drive a success. A special thank you to all the teachers who encouraged students to participate. We couldn't have done it without you!!
An extra special thank you to Chris Norwood who not only drove our filled bus over to the food bank, but also donated the entire Varsity Boy's Soccer Team to help unload the food. You rock!! The class with the most donations from elementary will get an ice cream party and for those of you at the secondary campus, you will get an entire week of jeans new week!!! Way to go Cougars!!! We "can" and we did!

Northland Choirs Record a Christmas CD
 For the first time in NCS history, Northland choirs have recorded a CD of Christmas music! This compilation features the Elementary Honor Choir, Middle School, High School Choirs and Select 16! Many of these same songs will be performed at the Christmas Concert Dec. 7th but others can only be heard on the CD. This Christmas treasure can be yours as a thank you gift for a donation supporting the NCS Fine Arts Society who paid for all production costs. Contributions made prior to December 3rd will assure that your CDs will be waiting for you to pick up at the Concert on Dec. 7th and avoid the added cost of shipping.
NCS Senior, Ellen Marsh, provided the artwork on the CD. The front of the CD is a beautiful outdoor scene featuring a home with smoke rising from the hearth inside. "When people open the CD, I want it to be like opening the door of their home and stepping inside where they will see gifts surrounding a beautiful Christmas tree!", Ellen explained. Blessed with many gifts, she has been featured in many theater arts productions, Choir and Select 16 as well as AP Art. After graduation, Ellen plans to major in architecture.
