Who We Are

Why Choose North Side

Culture of Excellence

At North Side, we believe every child can do amazing things! With our JUSTICE framework, teachers and administrators team up to create a positive, high-expectations environment where character and learning go hand in hand.

Small Classes, Big Attention

With only about 15 students per teacher – and extra support from teaching assistants and tutors – we make sure every child is known, supported, and celebrated.

Basic Skills Master

Reading, writing, and math are the building blocks of learning. We practice these every day so students can grow confident and proud of their progress.

Caring for the Whole Child

Every student gets free breakfast and lunch, plus access to health and wellness support. Thanks to our community partners and dedicated staff, kids can focus on learning while knowing their needs are taken care of.

There are no academic or financial barriers to join our North Side family. Nearly 500 students learn and grow together on our three campuses.
