Program Overview

At Northend Elementary School, we pride ourselves on being a small but tight-knit community. Our school fosters a warm, welcoming environment where every student is known, valued, and supported. As proud Eagles, we live by our SOAR values—Safe, On Task, Accountable, and Respectful. These principles are embedded into our daily routines and school culture, helping students grow not just academically, but also as responsible and respectful individuals.

We focus on building strong relationships between students, families, and staff, ensuring that each child has the opportunity to thrive academically, socially, and emotionally. With dedicated teachers and staff, we are committed to providing a personalized learning experience that nurtures curiosity and growth.

Together We SOAR

Northend’s small-school feel fosters a powerful sense of community where everyone plays a part in student success. Our SOAR values guide daily interactions and expectations, helping us build a positive, inclusive culture where students take pride in their actions and achievements. Together, we rise—Safe, On Task, Accountable, and Respectful.

Innovation in Action

Our newly launched Technology Lab is a vibrant space where students bring learning to life through hands-on exploration. With access to touch tables, iPads, and 3D printers, students dive into interactive experiences that enhance math and literacy instruction while building future-ready skills like problem-solving, creativity, and collaboration. It’s where innovation meets imagination—right here at Northend.

Connections in Advisory

Our school-wide Advisory program gives every student a chance to connect, explore, and grow. During enrichment blocks, students choose from a variety of engaging activities that match their interests—whether it's arts, STEM, leadership, or wellness. Advisory fosters strong relationships across grade levels and staff, creating a supportive space where students feel seen, heard, and empowered to take ownership of their learning journey.

Learning That Inspires

We believe learning should spark curiosity and fuel a love for discovery. Through personalized instruction, enrichment opportunities, and innovative tools like our new technology lab, students are encouraged to think critically, collaborate with others, and explore new ideas—all while being supported to reach their full potential.
