The Northwood School District held the second planning meeting yesterday and would like to thank all those that completed the survey that was recently sent out. The response was great. Responses of the survey were reviewed as we kicked off the collaboration. This feedback assisted in the progress towards the planning for the 2020-21 school year. The goal is to have a list of proactive health and wellness measures in place and a draft of our plan for returning to school which will be presented at the next Board meeting on July 16th. If you didn’t get a chance, please use this link to complete the survey. https://forms.gle/9Fq7mc1UdQgUaTwUA
This fall we will reopen school and education will resume in some capacity. Our goal is to determine how we can reopen the Northwood School District while keeping the health and safety of our students and staff a top priority. Use this link https://forms.gle/9Fq7mc1UdQgUaTwUA and take a few moments to complete the Back to School Survey in order for the Planning Committee to best meet the needs of our students and community as plans are solidified to return to school on August 20th.
Hello Northwood Families, Today, the Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction (DPI) released their Education Forward: Safely and Successfully Reopening Wisconsin Schools guidance document. The Northwood School District will be looking at these guidelines very closely. There is also a small group of parents, community members, and school employees from different areas of the building (Administration, Teachers, Food Service, Safety Coordinators, School Board Member, etc.) that are working on a responsive plan for reopening our school for next school year.
