Bluewater District School Board, Bruce-Grey Catholic District School Board, and Shared School Services are pleased to share that an agreement in principle has been reached with our bus operators. As such, student transportation will proceed as normal for the start of the school year in September!

✅ Important: Families must opt in for transportation for each child through the Edulog Parent Portal App. Students will not be assigned to a bus route unless this step is completed.

Thank you to our bus operators, staff, and families for your patience throughout this process. We're looking forward to a great start to the school year!

Happy Father’s Day from Northport School

Today, we celebrate and recognize all the fathers, stepfathers, grandfathers, uncles, guardians, and caring role models who make a difference in the lives of our students every day.

The support, encouragement, patience, and love you provide help children grow in confidence, resilience, and kindness. Whether you are cheering from the sidelines, helping with homework, reading bedtime stories, or simply being there to listen, your presence has a lasting impact.

On behalf of the staff and students of Northport School, thank you for all that you do for the children in our Cougar family and community.

We hope you enjoy a wonderful Father's Day filled with special moments and time spent with those you love.

Happy Father’s Day!

On Wednesday, June 17 a group of Grade 5 students travelled to Owen Sound to experience the One World Festival. At the festival, students had the opportunity to explore different cultures, listen to storytellers, create art and music, and connect with new friends. Huge thanks to Mrs. Martin for taking the students to this amazing festival!

In Grade 4 Marlow today we celebrated Carnival day! Students have been working all week on creating their own carnival games of probability! They did a wonderful job and had a great day "testing" their games out. Carnivals aren't complete without a face painting station...
