Watch the Northside News!  Click on a date to see that week's News:

    The Northside News is a school news program which is shown every Friday morning for the whole school to watch.  It is created, performed, and videotaped by 5th grade students under the supervision of Sally Horowitz, librarian.  Any 5th grader who wishes to be on the Northside News team may sign up.   Students gain experience using a video camera, digital camera, using PowerPoint to create credits, as well as being on-screen as a newscaster.
    
    Students in other grades may also be on the Northside News, although not as newscasters.  Each week there are 2 classroom reporters who give a report on what their class is doing.  Two different classrooms are featured each week.  The reporter is chosen by the classroom teacher. Other regular features on the News include:  an interview with a staff member; announcement of the birthdays for the week; lunch menu; lost and found report (items from our lost and found box); and school announcements.  We often have a Spanish word of the week, too.

    Parents who wish to see their child on the Northside News are welcome to watch it online (see above).  We plan to post it each week, as time permits.
