Dear North Eugene Families,
We are having a great time settling into this new year. We have our first full week back and lots of activities to check out. Grades will be emailed out to parents and guardians on Monday. Be sure to check in with your student about their progress or lack thereof ;) On Saturday, families from multilingual families are invited to join a family lunch and Robotics teams will be meeting to advance their teams and celebrate their success. Thank you for playing a vital role in your child's success!
GO NORTH!
