New Medical Form Required Prior to the First Day of School
All kindergarten through 12th grade parents should be receiving by mail this week a new Medical Release form that MUST BE ON FILE prior to the first day of school.  Please take the time to fill out this very important form and return it to Heather Lasseter in the High School Office ASAP.  If your student is planning to attend Band Camp or Football Camp prior to the first day of school, this form must be received before they can get on the bus. You can access this form by clicking on the red cross located on the home page of www.nck12.com. Licensing requires a separate form for preschool families. If your child is in preschool, you should have received your licensing packet by mail last week.
Urgent Need for Host Family!

Please consider opening your home to a German exchange student (even if it is for the first month or two of school while we find a more permanent home for the remainder of the year). Lennart is scheduled to attend Northside on a one year exchange program for 10th grade. He comes from a wonderful family. He is an extremely intelligent young man who enjoys swimming, basketball, skiing, track, and tennis. If you are willing to help, please contact Tessa Madasz before Thursday by calling the HS office or by cell - 727-409-1186
