Northside 5th Grade Field Trip Photos – Wednesday, May 20th, 2026!
Last week our 5th graders had an amazing time on their field trip to the Mill City Museum in Minneapolis, MN!
Students explored the interactive water and baking labs, learned about the history of Minneapolis through an educational film, and had a blast experiencing the famous Flour Tower, which was definitely a favorite!
It was such a fun day filled with hands-on learning, history, and memories our students will not forget!
Thank you to everyone who helped make this trip possible!
We are so proud of your achievements and the effort you put in each and every day! Congratulations on your awards! You have truly earned this recognition! Keep shining and reaching for greatness!

Students are exploring the steps of the digestion process and practicing how to explain each stage using new vocabulary and speaking skills. It’s exciting to see them connect science and language learning in such a hands-on way!
