Northwood's Penny Wars 2025 are in their final days. However, tomorrow is Twisted Tuesday! This means that pennies are negative and silver and green money is positive. It is a great way to help a class take the lead! The last day for donating is Thursday, November 20th. All donations made to the Penny Wars are going to our local food shelves.

Wednesday, NorthStar middle school students traveled to UW-Superior for the Youth Wellness Leadership Summit. Prior to attending the summit, NorthStar students submitted a "shark tank" proposal for a chance to win funds for an activity that promotes physical, social, and emotional wellness. Their idea: hosting a wellness fair for the Northwood School District! The group was selected to present at the summit AND was awarded the funds (more than they asked for, in fact) to complete their proposal. More information will be coming out in the future about how NorthStar plans to use the funds!

A reminder that starting Wednesday, November 12th, the Northwood Honor Society will be hosting a Penny War. A penny war is where pennies (copper coins) count positively to a class's / group's tally and silver coins or green bills count negatively towards the tally. So if a group has 25 pennies and then someone puts in a quarter, their tally would be zero. This year, the winning groups will get donuts! One for PK-5th grade students, one in the middle school including NorthStar, and one with 9th-12th grade. All funds will go to our local food shelves to help our communities' families undergoing hardships. The money will be collected in the library. The last day for collecting funds will be Thursday, November 20th.

Mrs. Turinske took several middle school band students to Shell Lake last week for a great experience. Pictured with Mrs. Turinske are Richard Hailey, Addison Sather, Charles Marshall, Jack Matthias, Aubrey Wiermaa and Saige Meyer. They spent Thursday at the Shell Lake Arts Center for Middle School Honor Band. They worked with over 200 students from over 20 different schools across Wisconsin and Minnesota and put on a concert after only six hours of practice. These students performed well and represented Northwood spectacularly. Northwood School and its Music Department want to thank the Northwood Education Foundation for covering the expenses for this event and their continual support of the music programming at our school.
