School Plan
Dear Parents,
Sadly Covid-19 continues to plague our community and it does not discriminate who it attacks! We want our students back in school for in-school learning because we simply miss their faces and our in-school interaction with them. Unfortunately, in following the state's recent numbers, we find it safer to remain 100 percent virtual through October 30, 2020 to ensure the health and well-being of our families. We will send out another parent survey the week of October 19, 2020 to gauge the feelings of our families at that time in addition to taking into account State of Michigan recommendations. Please continue to work with us as we are exercising what is most effective in terms of remaining safe for our families.
With Kind Regards
and in the best interest of our children,
Northridge Academy

About Us!
Northridge Academy is a learning community that places strong emphasis on teaching and learning while maintaining interest in the development of each child individually. This emphasis focuses on employing best practices to influence higher student achievement that is sustainable.
As a community of educators, our discovery is that our success with student attention and retention is derived as a result of adopting a constructivist method of teaching and learning. This ensures that we guide students rather than lecture to them, which allows them to develop and utilize higher order thinking skills and abilities to draw their own conclusions.
Further, students take ownership and experience feelings of self-worth, independence, and ability. Students actually take ownership of their own learning and development. The result is increased attention and retention, thereby sustained increased student achievement.
