March 20th Will Bring Something Different for Everyone
On the day when all Juniors will take the ACT, making much of the school building unusable for normal class activities, we will take advantage of the free time for our other three classes. Each class will engage in the activity you see described below. All of these activities will take place in the first half of the day, with an early release scheduled for 12:25. Students will be provided transportation home at that time.
Freshmen: College Visit to the University of Toledo
We will meet with the freshmen at 7:35 in the Performing Arts Center to educate them on what to look for when they visit college campuses in the coming years. We will then bus the students to the University of Toledo for a tour and informational program. Students will need to bring their Chromebooks or a smartphone with the Google Sheets app downloaded. Students will be researching twenty-five aspects that can be used to compare one university to another. We will encourage students to share their findings with their counselors and parents. Students will be given a permission slip for the field trip on March 1st. We ask that it be returned the next day.
Sophomores: Practice ACT
The NVPO and Northview Faculty will host the sophomores in the Main Gym and Auxiliary Gymnasium for a practice ACT. Students will complete a timed, full practice ACT. We will score them and return the results to students within days. We will take this opportunity to educate students on what resources they can use to prepare to take the real ACT next spring.
Juniors: ACT
We will administer the ACT to all juniors on March 20. Please make sure your son or daughter reports on time. Students who are tardy will be required to retest on the make-up date in May.
Seniors: Choose from the below menu of options
Take a College Visit
Conduct a Career Shadowing Experience
Participate in a Class Service Project
There will be service project options on and off campus for drivers and non-drivers
Seniors were given a permission slip to transport themselves to one of the above options, with the exception of those who will ride the bus to school and participate in the
on-campus service project. Permission slips are due back on March 15th. Students will be given a form to complete verifying their participating in one of the above activities.

Junior Retesting
Juniors may retest in order to improve their scores (Performance Levels). Assistant Principal Hinojosa-Lloyd will mail letters to parents/guardians of those students who need to retest in order to stay on track for graduation. Students who plan to retake should notify Mrs. Hinojosa-Lloyd via email and need to attend the appropriate testing time(s) listed above.
Mrs. Hinojosa-Lloyd - glloyd@sylvaniaschools.org

Buses will follow their normal routes and times for students. Buses will NOT be running two hours late. It is important that students find alternative transportation or plan on bus transportation at their normal pick up time. A study hall will be provided for those students arriving on buses at the normal start time. Regular classes will begin at 9:35 am for all students.

Tutoring Opportunities for Ohio State Testing
Tutoring sessions will be offered for English 9, English 10, Algebra I, Geometry, American History and Biology. A certified teacher will review important concepts, and students will practice online tests to become more familiar with the question types and the test format. Sessions are offered Monday-Thursday during the weeks of 4/9/18 and 4/16/18 from 2:30-3:30 at the following locations:

English 9 (ELA 1) - Room F7 English 10 (ELA 2) - Room TBD Algebra I - Room C5 Geometry - Room C8
Biology - Room D7 American History - Room G1

Think Ahead! Think Spring!
It is cold outside now but warmer temperatures and summer break are right around the corner. Help your student prepare for competitive collegiate admission by finding a summer academic camp at a college or university that
interests them. Students can use these opportunities to network, as well as the further the exploration of their interests and their education. We are planning to once again be offering our own Camp Creatives here at Northview. Over the past few summers, we have encouraged students to continue to learn over the summer by offering one week camps in everything from mathematics, to music and writing, to computer coding. Look for registration forms in the near future.

College Prep Challenge

Step 1.	Answer 215 practice
questions
on	.
Step 2.	Attend the crash course
with Joan Sadowski at 7:30 a.m. at SV on 12/5 & 3/7.

Step 3.	Take a practice	on 11/4 (SV), 1/27 (NV), or
2/24 (SV).

College Prep Challenge

All Juniors will have FREE access to Albert, which is an online service that allows students to answer practice ACT questions, and receive feedback on their answers.
There are 215 questions on an ACT test.
Albert will offer questions that span the various topics covered on the ACT. We encourage students to spread out their 215 to all of the various categories.

Mrs. Sadowski is a professional ACT tutor. During the December and March 2 Hour Delays, she will teach students about the differences between what they are learning in class and what is on the test. She will also give them steps they can take to prepare to score as well as they can.

The NVPO and SVPO will be hosting three opportunities to take a full length practice ACT for students. Taking advantage of any one of these practices tests will work.
Students can skip this step if they take Mrs. Rhine’s after school ACT prep course in the fall or spring.

SONGS OF A NEW WORLD

Northview Theatre is thrilled to present a one-night-only encore performance of the inspirational summer musical, “Songs for a New World" Sunday, March 18th. “Songs” examines that one pivotal moment in someone’s life when things change for better or worse, and how they learn to live in the "new world" after that life-changing event. Audience members who saw it in August described it as “meaningful,” “powerful” and even
“life-changing.” The cast will offer an encore performance in the Northview Performing Arts Center on Sunday, March 18th at 7:30 PM and tickets are on sale now at northviewtheatre.org or will be available in the box office the night of the performance. We also want to say “break-a-leg” cast and crew as they travel to the 2018 Ohio Thespian State Conference near Dayton at the end of the month, where “Songs for a New World” was selected as a full-length featured performance at the conference—the only show from NW Ohio to be selected!
Don’t miss this terrific show!

The attendance guideline procedures are in compliance with the Ohio Revised Code. Also, review this section in the student handbook, which explains in detail what will be considered an excused absence.
Attendance Procedures:

The (PCA) form must be filled out in advance of the day(s) absent. A parent must call or come in to request a Personal Convenience Absence form.

Juniors should be starting their college searches. A good place to start is the University of Toledo College Fair. This takes place on Tuesday, March 6, 2018, from 6:30-8:00 pm at the student union.

2017 - 2018
It's a newschool year and time for a conversation about meals at school!

We are excited about the upcoming school year! We continue to offer food options that are not only healthy, but kid's favorites.

MySchoolBucks - We strongly encourage all parents and guardians to discuss meal options and responsible purchases with their children. Also, please consider using myschoolbucks.com as a tool for you, the parent/guardian, to review your child's purchases and manage their lunch account balance. There is no charge to set up an account and monitor your child's cafeteria purchases.

Breakfast - During the 2017-2018 school year, we will have several options available every day for breakfast. Let us provide your kiddos with a healthy breakfast daily! As a bonus, you get more time in the morning!I Breakfast is offered at 9 of our 12 schools: Hillview, Maplewood, Stranahan, Sylvan, Whiteford, Arbor Hills, McCord, Northview and Southview.

Menus -The 2017-2018 menus will be available at www.sylvaniaschools.o rg after July 30, 2017.. Our menu will be updated again after winter break.

No kid goes hungry - We will never take food from a child in the lunch line. However, lunch and breakfast charges will be the responsibility of the studen t's parent or guardian and will be collected like other student fees.

Meal account balances - Letters are sent home once a month if a student's lunch account balance is over $20.00 in arrears. lif the account is not brought current, the charges will then be app'lied to the    student' s Power School account and must be paid at the Treasurer's Office. ll n  th  is instance, a letter is also mailed to the home address on record.

Meal accounts - In an attempt to make certain no student ,goes without breakfast or lunch, our system has been configured to allow students to charge full meals (no t a la carte items) when they do not have food with them or money on their lunch account.

Charging is for emergencies - Our  new charge system  is required  by the state of Ohio.  It is intended  to be used for the occasional time when a child does not have funds in their lunch account or does not have lunch money with them. The intention of this system is not to create a revolving charge account.

Set limitatio ns -The student's meal account can have specific limitations set to accommodate the parent request(s) regarding food purchases and/or monetary limits. The food service staff is avai.lable to discuss these options at (419) 824-8655 or (419) 824-8511.

Need assistance? The application for free and reduced meals for the 2017-2018 school year should be available at: sylvaniaschools.org/our-school-districtladministration/food-service after July 15, 2017. Paper applications will be available at school offices after July 30, 20 16 .
NOTE: Re-application is required each school year for all students.

We are committed to better nutrition and quality of foods while  staying  within  the required  guidelines. Please help us in our efforts to feed and serve students to make a difference. Thank you for your support in your child's nutrition and education  and your continued support of our cafeteria program!!  We are passionate about feeding and serving students to make a difference.

Sincerely,
Joseph Shamy  - Director, Food Services and Purchasing j shamy@sylvaniaschools.org
