Good evening NLCS. The National Weather Service is reporting even worse weather conditions starting tonight through noon tomorrow. No travel is advised. We will have another E Learning day for Thursday, December 15. Teachers will be on call for help as needed. Please stay safe.
Good evening Northern Lights families, students, and staff. Due to the weather tonight that will affect the driving in the morning and the fact that we have students and staff located in places like Duluth, Hibbing, Chisholm and Floodwood - Wednesday will be an E-Learning day. No in-person school tomorrow. All students should have assignments from their teachers and a way to contact them if they need help. Thank you for your patience and understanding. Please stay safe and warm.
The trout eggs have arrived! NLCS participates in the MN DNR/Trout Unlimited Trout in the Classroom program. Each winter, we are given custody of a jar full of trout eggs that we are responsible to raise until they can be released in the spring in a nearby body of water. Stay tuned for pictures as they hatch and grow!
