On behalf of the faculty, staff and administration of Northview Next, greetings to the multitude of talented students, parents/guardians, and prospective families in our school community.  Thank you all for your interest in East Campus High School.  We offer high school educational opportunities to Northview residents and non-residents in both the daytime and evening.

It is our Mission to empower students for life’s next step. As a result we expect the following from all students:

♦ Demonstrate academic and personal integrity in all of their course work and efforts.

♦ Be honest in all situations to promote self-learning, intellectual growth, and character development.

♦ Always show respect to fellow students, their family members, Northview faculty and staff, and other individuals or groups within and outside the Grand Rapids area.

Our highly qualified teachers are clearly committed to our Vision of providing teens with both academic and social strategies and opportunities to reach their fullest potential.  We not only offer our academic services during the day but also provide a night school opportunity for our students.  Outside of the classroom our teachers challenge our students socially by encouraging their involvement extracurricular activities.  Within the past year, our students have participated in ultimate Frisbee, softball, and bowling; attended the Carrie play hosted at Aquinas College; served food to homeless at local shelters; marched in the Martin Luther King parade; and spoke at local town hall meetings.

We take pride in achieving our mission and vision to make sure we reflect our school’s belief that:

♦ School should benefit all learners.

♦ Every person has a basic need to learn and grow.

♦ Every person has skills and abilities.

♦ People are essentially good.

♦ Each person is a valued member of the school community.

To ensure we can reach a wide range of students, we offer day care, Kent Career Technical Center Classes, a small school setting, outside learning experiences, career education classes, and a work-based education program.

We appreciate your interest in our school and welcome any questions.  Contact us at (616) 361-7396 or bdickerson@nvps.net  Go, Wildcats!

Sincerely,

Principal Brent Dickerson and The Northview Next Staff
