Dear Northside Families,

What an amazing beginning to March! Missoula Children’s Theatre wrapped up this weekend and this afternoon, our entire school participated in a Read-In to celebrate Read Across America Week. It was such a joy to see students across grade levels enjoying books together. We’ll continue the celebration all week with fun dress-up days for everyone to participate in.

At the end of the week, students will take part in Student-Led Conferences. Last year, we had an impressive 91% of our families attend, and I know we can do even better this time! Please plan to bring your student to school on Friday, March 6th , anytime between 7:45 a.m. and 2:10 p.m. (with a short lunch break from 11:00–11:45). This is a special opportunity for your child to proudly share the amazing learning happening in their classroom at Northside.

March is also a wonderful time for uninterrupted learning. With fewer breaks in the schedule, students can build strong routines and make meaningful academic progress. Thank you for continuing to prioritize good attendance, being at school each day is one of the most important factors to student success.

Please don’t hesitate to reach out if you have any questions. I look forward to seeing you during conferences and continuing a fantastic month together!

Warmly,

Mrs. Watson
