5th graders from North and 1st graders from South collaborated and used teamwork on a STEAM project about shadows!! Thank you to Mrs. Hindbaugh-Marr for running it.
Thank you to the CMU Women's Basketball Team for inviting our families to attend the game today! Fire Up Chips!
Due to our school cancellations, the only lunch option Thursday, January 23rd will be PB & J sack lunch. Friday we will be back on track using the school lunch calendar.
There is still time to order your copy of the North Elementary Yearbook!
Unfortunately school is cancelled tomorrow and CMU is unable to reschedule the event; however they would love to have any student(s) and their families to come to the game still. They will have a list of schools who were participating in the Hoops for Hunger game and the ticket office will get you into the game for free!
If your 3rd-6th grader is looking for ways to fill these cold days, suggest working on the Invention Convention project! All North Elementary students have started creating unique solutions for problems in their daily lives, and there are plenty of things that can be done at home to prepare projects for display on our family night February 6!
5th graders were engaged in hands on learning with Omni cubes to help their math and building skills!
Hi North Families,
Can you believe we are halfway through our 2nd trimester of the year? Time buzzes by when you are learning a lot!
Swarm Together,
Mrs. Rayburn
Learning with food is always a favorite! 4th graders were able to simulate plate tectonics using hard boiled eggs and graham crackers with frosting!
Empowering excellence in the classroom! Our sixth graders are having a blast with Hands on Equations, turning algebra into an engaging and fun unit! Using manipulatives of pawns and number cubes, they’re not just learning, they’re becoming confident problem solvers. #SwarmTogether

What a wonderful day we had at our 6th Grade Christmas party! The kids enjoyed three exciting rotations: playing Uno, a fun Gimkit game, and indulging in a sweet and salty snack mix. We also loved listening to Mrs. Rayburn read a delightful holiday story. In the afternoon, we got creative making yarn hats and sipping hot chocolate!
We are proud to recognize our Students of the Month, who exemplifies kindness, self-control, and a collaborative mindset.
