Northview Elementary School

The greatest thing about Northview Elementary is that the kids all seem to have smiles on their faces. It's a happy atmosphere, with kids who seem pleased to be there. The teachers are all wonderful, and I'm so sorry to be leaving the elementary school, after five happy years. It seems like just yesterday we were walking into Ms. Book's class for the first time.....

My son was in Kindergarten last year, Mrs. Mull's class, she is awesome! Seth was really shy at the beginning of the year and cried for the first few weeks but she helped open him up and he has learned so much. My middle son will be in Kindergarten in 2009 and I hope he is able to get Mrs. Mull.

Last year my oldest was in Northview Elementary 4th grade, she is now in Northview middle. My middle child which went last year in Kindergarten is now in the 1st grade this year. Also my youngest is now in Northview Elementary and she is in Kindergarten. I feel really good about both elementary and middle. The teachers and the principals are always on top of things with the children and parents. I would have to say these two schools are by far the best my children have gone to. Thank You to all the staff and parents that have made these schools the way they are!

Well Mr Thompson and teachers, another great year again for my children! I want to thank everyone at Northview Elementary for everything they have done for me and my 4 children who my last one graduates 4th grade and moves to the Middle school next year! Mr Thompson you are the best! I have been honored to have all my children pass through Northview Schools and turn into wonderful respectful children. This school with it's leadership will continue to be the best and all parents should feel lucky to have their children go there because the faculty not only teach, they care about your children. Thanks again!

North view elementary is a wonderful school. The teacehrs are great. My child is very book smart, but lack the social skills. He has never been in daycare so school was a big change for him. He has been going there for 3 years and im very grateful for the teachers help in this area. All of his teachers (mrs. Grindstaff, mrs. Isreal, and mrs. Taylor) have all been outstanding in helping my son excel in these areas! the teachers at this school really do care about there students, and it shows. Mr. Thompson is also great. He greets all the car riding students in the morning, and waves to the parents. He always makes the time if you need him also. This school is really one in a million!

As a grandparent, my grandson attended North View Elementary from K-4. He is now going to the Middle School. When ask what his greatest fear or worry about attending Middle School for the first time, his response was, 'Mr. Thompson want be there.' Mr. Thompson has gained great respect from our family because his concerns are about the children, academically and growth at school and home issues. He has a big heart and calls the students by name. Mr. Thompson has made what North View School stands for and I sure hope he is there when my 2 year old grandson attends. Great School with Great Leadership. Thanks Mr. Thompson for all that you do and beyond your call as the principal. Thanks, Nancy Willis (Grandparent of Christian Deskins)

My children have attended Northview Elementary and the Middle school for the past 11 years. The teachers there are very compassionate to your children's needs especially if there are issues on the homefront. The best principal you'll ever meet is at Northview Elementary School, Mr Thompson. You're the greatest. Thanks for every thing you and your staff have given me and my children!
