"Make a career of humanity. Commit yourself to the noble struggle for equal rights. You will make a better person of yourself, a greater nation of your country, and a finer world to live in."

Happy Holidays from Northside.
Too many sweet treats for Mr. Grinch!
More Grinch shenanigans from the week. Tuesday, Mr. Grinch is 'collecting' mail for Santa to take to the North Pole. Wednesday, Mr. Grinch is dreaming about "The Night Before Christmas," which we will read and enjoy school-wide today.
Today, all students at Northside spent a few minutes reading the Christmas classic, "The Night Before Christmas." We were blessed with several guest readers. I didn't get a photo of everyone, but wanted to share those I was able to capture. A big thank you to all of our guests: Kristen Northcutt, Melissa Miles, Trevor Smith, Darlena Brown, Keith Merritt, Lona Rorer, and Mary June Brunker.
Its Monday mischief with the Grinch at Northside! The Grinch has tied a rope between the basketball goals and is spending his day suspended above the cafeteria. He was surprisingly difficult to find today!
One of our Christmas Elves was FINALLY able to catch Mr. Grinch for a Naughty List TIME OUT! By the look of his smile, I can see he's up to something!
Mr. Grinch and all the Library Book Buddies enjoyed an overnight snowball fight at Northside!
On Tuesday, Mr. Grinch was making a mess, attempting to sell Hot Chocolate ahead of our Entrepreneur Fair. Hot Chocolate, made with real onions? Gross!
Each year, Mr. Grinch makes an appearance at Northside and starts his Christmas shenanigans. His mischief knows no bounds!
With the busyness of the week, we forgot to post our pictures of Mr. Grinch! Monday, Mr. Grinch makes his first appearance, having captured a Christmas Elf.
