On Friday, February 20th, the Minnesota Elementary School Principal's Association (MESPA) joined Northside Elementary for their "Glowing with Excellence" celebration. This celebration was held for the School of Excellence recognition that Northside received back in September! This designation will be held by Northside from 2025-2033.
Here is what MESPA had to share following the celebration:
Glowing With Excellence
MESPA was honored to join the Northside Elementary community to celebrate their designation as a Minnesota School of Excellence!
It was clear that this is a school where students feel connected, supported, and inspired. The celebration included a wonderful choir performance, followed by a video showcasing the many ways Northside glows with excellence.
And the celebration didn’t stop there, the lights dimmed and the gym lit up for a glow dance party filled with joy, laughter, and true school pride!
Thank you to the Northside team for your commitment to excellence and for welcoming us into your community. We were also glad to see KEYC News Now there helping share your story across the region.
Congratulations, Northside Elementary!
