NORTHVIEW RECOGNIZED ON A STATE & NATIONAL LEVEL!
US News and World Reports does an annual ranking of high school based on performance measures (http://www.mlive.com/lansing-news/index.ssf/2013/04/east_lansing_okemos_high_schoo.html#incart_river) in reading, math, and college/workforce data.
Northview High School was awarded a Silver Medal and ranked #59 out of 826 Michigan High Schools. The national ranking was #2004 out of 21,000 high schools.
TUESDAY, MAY 28th – GRADUATION OF THE CLASS OF 2013
Graduation will take place at SUNSHINE COMMUNITY CHURCH, 3300 East Beltline N.E. on Tuesday, May 28th. The practice will be at 8:00 a.m. on Tuesday morning. The actual graduation ceremony will take place at 7:30 p.m. that evening. It is of utmost importance that your senior attends graduation practice. There are many details they need to be aware of for the evening ceremony. Professional photographers have been hired to take a picture of all graduates as they get their diploma. This way we hope to eliminate the overcrowding of well meaning friends and parents who want to take pictures.
This is also a time for celebration, graduation parties, etc. We truly value the health and safety of our Northview graduates. They need to be reminded how much we love them and care about their safety and good decision making! Thank you for the support you have given your senior through the years. It is a wonderful time in their lives! They are apprehensive about leaving their school, but are "ready" to transition to the next step in their lives. We have appreciated the opportunity to work with your sons and daughters.
Best Wishes,
Mark C. Thomas, Principal
