Health

Our Health Department has two teachers, Mr. Kyle Burton and Mrs. Tammie LeClerc

The Northside Middle School Health and Wellness Program is designed to provide opportunities that will enable adolescents to make healthy decisions now and in the future. Focus is on both immediate health needs and long-term consequences of behaviors. The holistic approach to health is used which considers the social, mental/emotional, ethical and physical needs of adolescents.

The Northside Middle School Health staff is committed to providing information and skills for our students. Through life lessons, we will work with each child to help them become responsible for their health and well-being.

All students that are not in Band or Choir, take one 9-week Health class from each teacher in both 7th and 8th grade. Those students who choose Band or Choir as a year-long elective have one 9-week Health class from one of the teachers in both 7th and 8th grade.
