Please consider donating used books to our Media Center.

ATTENTION PARENTS OF 5TH GRADE STUDENTS!
There are still spots available for this summer’s CAMP Hillside and CAMP Meads Mill!
The Children Adjusting to Middle School Program (CAMP) is designed to help incoming sixth graders build personal, academic, and life management skills necessary to successfully transition to middle school. It is particularly helpful to students who have had difficulty with transitions in the past or who are anxious about beginning middle school.
Participants will become comfortable with the layout of the school, meet new friends, learn how to open a locker and use a planner, work with the school staff and develop teambuilding skills.
Students attend CAMP at the middle school which they will attend. The registration fee is $170.00. Scholarships are available in the event of financial difficulty. Please contact the Northville Youth Assistance office at 248-344-1618 for a financial aid form.
August 13-17, 2018
9AM—2PM*
*Field trip day is Wednesday at Meads Mill and Thursday at Hillside.
Hours on field trip day are 9:30AM – 3:30PM.
Applications are available for pick-up at each elementary school. Please send completed application forms and a check for $170.00 made payable to:

Keep Clipping those BoxTops!
As summer approaches, don't forget to keep clipping those BoxTops all summer long! Print the attached collection sheets as a fun reminder and goal for the summer - this will give us a great jump start for our next collection drive in the fall! This year we earned $750 with your clippings - let's go for $1000 next year - with your help, we can make it happen!
We're looking for a new coordinator for next year, which would come from support from our current coordinator - please consider this easy and impactful way to help our great school! All work can be done outside of school hours on your own time - there are 2 collection drives each year. For more information please contact our current coordinator, Michelle Cummings, at cummingsml@hotmail.com
Attention 3rd-5th Graders
Volunteer Appreciation Breakfast - June 14th
If you have volunteered in any way to support our Silver Springs community, the Silver Springs Staff would like to say THANK YOU! Please join us at a Volunteer Appreciation Celebration on Thursday, June 14th, beginning at 8:15 AM in our library. Please feel free to bring your child/children to have breakfast with you!
ATTENTION PARENTS: Order your EduKit now!
Everything your student needs for the 2018-2019 school year comes packaged in one convenient box, customized to your teacher’s requests!
Each grade has a specific kit.
**Please note that the supply kits are simply suggestions of helpful items and are strictly voluntary, as the Northville Public Schools provide the necessary supplies and materials for your child's successful school experience.
After-School Activities Student Pick-Up
We keep the main doors locked for safety. Kids Club families have key fobs so that they are able to come in and sign their student out of the program. Please don't follow someone into the building. Thank you for your understanding in putting student safety first and we appreciate your effort to follow these rules.
Supporting the The 7 Habits at home!
Habit #7: Sharpen the Saw
What this means: Balance feels best. In order to maintain and increase effectiveness, we must renew ourselves in body, mind, heart and soul.
“I take care of my body by eating right, exercising, and getting sleep.”
“I find meaningful ways to help others.”
“I spend time with family and friends.”
“I learn in lots of ways and places, not just at school.”
How can I do this in my life?
1. Go for a walk.
2. Read a book.
3. Volunteer in your community.
4. Value the difference in others.
