Hello Northshore Families and Staff, 

As a reminder, beginning Monday, March 11, 2019 all schools will add an additional ten minutes to the school day. This is part of our snow make up plan. Please know that buses will pick up students 10 minutes earlier beginning March 11. Don’t forget, this weekend is daylight saving time, so be sure to set your clock forward one hour on March 10 to accommodate for the time change.
