Northside Christian School Junior Natalie Chapman has been selected to the prestigious 2015-2016 FHSAA Student-Athlete Advisory Committee. Natalie is only one of 15 students who were selected statewide. Parking Lot Update
Construction resumes February 15th. We will complete the preschool/elementary parking area first before moving on to the new MS/HS Entrance and then the senior/faculty parking lot closest to the football field. Thank you for your patience. We have been told that this next phase of construction should proceed much quicker than Phase One.
New Technology in the Elementary School
Thanks to a generous donation by one of our elementary school families, the elementary school has received the following technology upgrades: 150 iPads providing our students a 2 to 1 iPad ratio in every elementary classroom, smartboards in preschool and resource classrooms, and two active tables in kindergarten. The active tables have brought learning in kindergarten to a higher level.
Volunteers Needed for Track Meets
Northside Christian School is hosting 3 track meets this season and we will need nearly 175 volunteers for our meets to run smoothly. We can't run these meets without your help!

Tuesday, Feb. 23 NCS Middle School Invitational - 70 volunteers needed.

Congratulations Congratulations to Senior Mara Lameyer, Sophomore Anastasia Gregory and Senior Christine Lim for being accepted into the 2016 Scholastic Art Awards. They will each have one of their pieces on display at the exhibition.
Mara Lameyer "Sign Language" - Silver Key Mara Lameyer "Vacation" - Honorable Mention Anastasia Gregory "Paper Nature"- Silver Key Anastasia Gregory "Nemo" - Honorable Mention
Christine Lim "The Old Man" - Gold Key Lisa Jones Update
Ms. Jones continues to work with the therapists as they strive to wean her off of the ventilator. She is able to communicate more and this will help her progress tremendously. Physical therapy is working on strengthening her legs and arms and they are having her sit up and stand as much as she can tolerate. Some days are better than others and this is to be expected. Still a long way to go, but each day is closer to getting Ms. Jones back to us. Ms. Jones' mom has been reading the cards so many have sent and this is such an encouragement to both Ms. Jones and her parents. Continue to pray for her stamina and strength. If you would like to give money to help cover some of Ms. Jones' expenses, simply click on her picture located on the home page of www.nck12.com. Thank you for your prayers!
