Good Morning Northside K-8 Parents: Many of our teachers have called in and shared that they have no power this morning and are unable to have class today January 28, 2021. If teachers are experiencing power outages than we are aware that students may be having the same issues. Therefore students will not be marked absent today. However, teachers who are not experiencing power outages will have class today. Every instructional day counts, since we know many of our students are trying to catch up academically due to COVID19 safety precautions which have not allow students to have in person face to face instruction.
