Our final retiree for 2020 is Mrs. Alexander. The community knows how much Mrs. A cares, as she has built a program that is not only distinguished by the State but is built around NW students! Nobody loves their students more than Mrs. A! We will miss you! #ThankATeacher
Another retiree this year is Mr. Wilson. Being in education for over 30 years, Mr. Wilson has been a coach and recently a dual credit instructor in World Languages. We will miss all of the experiences you brought to the classroom! #ThankATeacher
Mrs. Clem, retiring this year, started at Northwestern in 1998. She was recently the girl's track coach and in the past has been a golf coach as well. We will miss your service and sacrifice to Northwestern students. We love you Mrs. Clem! #ThankATeacher
On the last day to #ThankATeacher, we would like to remind everyone that every day is teacher appreciation! We LOVE our teachers! Northwestern has one last opportunity to thank three of our teachers that are retiring this year: Mrs. Alexander, Mrs. Clem, and Mr. Wilson.
Next Thursday, I will be asking the School Board to approve July 11th as the day for the Class of 2020 to have a traditional Graduation Ceremony! #Seniors, we will see you soon!
It’s teacher appreciation week and we have awesome teachers at Northwestern High School! If you love your teachers, reach out and #ThankATeacher
