North Junior High School had several things to celebrate this year with all the wonderful programs that they were able to add that helped students. The Access Grant allowed them to work with students to increase student achievement. The Office of Equity Services and the cultural navigators worked with students in the classroom and helped with communicating more effectively with families of various cultures, as well as providing transportation for students so the students could attend targeted services programs after the school day. AmeriCorps provided staff to work with students in need of math help.
Then, there were several individual and team award winners as well. For example, an eighth grader at North won a state title in wrestling. Two Academic Triathalon teams took second in state.
Finally, North had a successful program with the addition of 6th grade.
