Good afternoon Northeast Family and Friends. Here is our Northeast “Shout Out” for this first full week of March. First off, let us give a huge shout out congratulating all of the cast and crew from this year’s Once On This Island, Jr. production. The show was amazing and everyone should be tremendously P.R.O.U.D. if they had any part to do with the production. We have another tremendous shout out congratulating our 8th grade Seminar students for their “What’s So Cool About Manufacturing?” winning video. They took home the top prize, Outstanding Overall Video, for their film featuring Nestlé Waters. Their student video has qualified them to compete in the State competition in April.
On the academic side, please note to check Schoology for the progress of your children now that we are over the midpoint of the third quarter. The easiest way to retrieve this information is to have your child pull up all of their courses on their Chromebook. If you need additional assistance looking at your child’s grades, please call the main office at 610-868-8581 and ask for Mrs. Rodriquez.
This week we also have our first official tryouts and practices for our spring sports. We congratulate all the students trying out for our teams, and we encourage them whether they win or lose to never stop trying. Also starting this week Mr. Rahs, Mr. Sawicki and the guidance counselors begin visiting our elementary feeder schools to meet next year’s incoming 6th grade class. Our first visit is with 5th grade children from William Penn on Tuesday and Lincoln on Thursday. Finally, the end of our week is a busy one for our musicians as we host our Northeast Middle School Jazz Festival on Friday.
