North Elementary would like to send a huge thank you to the Ithaca PTO for helping our summer school kids enjoy the MSU Planetarium!!

We ended summer school this year with an engaging field trip to the MSU Planetarium!





Summer school is in full swing! Our theme this summer is Outer Space. Students have been learning a lot and having a little bit of fun!🤩







School’s out for summer, but that doesn’t mean learning has to stop. Summer break is the perfect time for families to incorporate lessons into daily activities—even vacations—to keep kids engaged and their minds active. These fun, brain-friendly activities are a great place to start.

Last Thursday was our last day; we had a beautiful day for our 6th grade graduation. Mr. Impemba and the sixth grade band did an outstanding job . We would like to thank all of the many parents, family members, and our school secretary that helped organize sixth grade graduation as well. It's tradition for all staff to wave good-bye to the students and wish them a happy summer break--see you in August!
