Students in Mr. Zoelzer's 8th grade class had the opportunity to dissect frogs in science today! Students explored and identified the internal structure and function of the frog's organs. Students were assigned roles in the dissection process and worked together with their teams to complete tasks throughout the activity. Great job, 8th graders!

The Spartan Art Club made these adorable gingerbread plushie ornaments to hang on the tree here at Northbrook Middle School! Art club members cut out their own gingerbread men-felt patterns. Next, they sewed the gingerbread men together using a blanket stitch and stuffed them with Poly-fil to make them plush. Finally, students added bows, eyes, piped frosting lines, etc. out of additional colored felt. Happy holidays from the Spartan Art Club!

Northbrook students are invited to participate in the Ruby Bridges Walk to School Day on Thursday, November 14th. Six year old Ruby Bridges stepped into the history books on November 14, 1960 when she integrated William Frantz Elementary School in New Orleans, becoming a national icon for the civil rights movement. Today her story continues to inspire the next generation of leaders by encouraging students to make positive changes in their communities and schools. Throughout the walk, Mr. Schepper’s and Miss Henkel’s Enrichment Rti groups will be sharing their work to improve the sidewalks for Mendota. The event will bring greater awareness that accessibility is an issue of equity. Students must sign up no later than Monday, Nov. 11th, at the end of the school day.
