Northview High School

Summer is a great time to explore and learn together as a family! SSD’s FACE (Family and Community Engagement) encourages families to take advantage of the many educational and affordable opportunities our community has to offer this summer. When students visit places like the Zoo, Art Museum, or Science Center, they experience things that cannot be replicated in a classroom. Educators call this building background knowledge—the real-world experiences that help students better understand what they read and learn in school.

On this Memorial Day, Special School District thanks all those who have served, and the families who support them.

All SSD buildings will be closed today, May 25, and will reopen tomorrow, May 26.

From classroom celebrations to end-of-year memories, this year has been full of moments worth celebrating! 🎉

We are so proud of our students for their hard work, growth, creativity, and kindness throughout the school year. Whether they were learning, performing, competing, creating, or simply making memories with friends, these moments reflect what makes our school community so special.

Thank you to our students, staff, and families for an incredible year. We hope everyone has a safe, relaxing, and joyful summer break! ☀️

🎉 The Last Day of School is Here! ☀️🎓

As we close out the 2026–27 school year, we’re celebrating the hard work, growth, and accomplishments of students across SSD schools and programs — and sending a special congratulations to the Class of 2027!

This year was filled with learning, creativity, friendships, and memorable moments made possible by the support of dedicated staff, supportive families, and our amazing school communities.

Today, we’re celebrating our amazing Speech-Language Pathologists and the difference they make in the lives of students every day. 💙

From helping students build communication skills to encouraging confidence and connection, our SLPs play an important role in supporting student growth and success. Their patience, creativity, and dedication help students feel heard, understood, and empowered in the classroom and beyond.

Thank you for the care and support you provide to our students and school community each day — we appreciate you!

Celebrating every achievement, every milestone, and every Northview graduate! ✨ 🎓

Monday evening, we celebrated the hard work, growth, determination, and individuality of each of our graduates. Our students have overcome challenges, built lasting friendships, and created memories that will stay with us for years to come.

We are so proud of everything this graduating class has accomplished and cannot wait to see what comes next for each of them. Congratulations, graduates — your Northview family is cheering you on every step of the way!

Northview’s stage was full of talent, creativity, and confidence at this year’s Talent Show! 🎤🕺🎹

More than 20 student acts entertained the crowd with singing, dancing, drumming, piano, gospel music, yoga, and free-style rap performances. Students performed individually, in duos, and in groups while sharing their talents with the school community.

One audience favorite was the Superhero Dance performed by Darla Maynard’s class, featuring students in capes and masks dancing across the stage. Senior Maya Wilkes also wowed the audience with her performance of “Irreplaceable” by Beyoncé.

“I am absolutely floored by the level of courage and artistry our students displayed on stage during our talent show,” said Principal Brian O’Connor. “To say I’m a proud principal would be a massive understatement; I’m inspired.”

Our interpreters help every student feel seen, heard, and connected 🤟

This Deaf Awareness Month, we’re celebrating the interpreters in our building who play a vital role in supporting communication and inclusion. Through their skill, attentiveness, and flexibility, they ensure Deaf and hard-of-hearing students can fully engage in learning and school life. Their presence helps create a space where students can express themselves and build meaningful connections.
