"I wanted to share something that I am doing in the civics class with my kiddos as a form of formative assessment and note taking. You may be familiar with the term "mind maps" this is essentially what we are doing here. This article I am attaching explains: Drawing wins out because it allows information to be processed in multiple ways, explained Edutopia’s research editor Youki Terada: “When we draw, we encode the memory in a very rich way, layering together the visual memory of the image, the kinesthetic memory of our hand drawing the image, and the semantic memory that is invoked when we engage in meaning-making.”"

Meet Danica Steere, our new counselor. Here's a little blurb about her.
"My role as the school counselor at NLCS is to best support each student. Whether they need support in academics, career and future planning, or mental health I am ready to help! I am excited to get to know each student and help wherever I can!"
In just a couple of weeks, our students will be heading to the Marcell Research Center for hands-on learning. Because the experience takes place outdoors, mud boots are essential—but not every student has access to a pair.
We’re asking for help from our community. If you have new or gently used boots to donate, please contact Northern Lights Community School at 218-492-4400. Your generosity will ensure that every student can fully participate in this valuable experience.
Thank you for supporting our students!
