🇺🇸 Honoring Our Veterans 🇺🇸 Today, we pause to honor and thank all those who have served in the United States Armed Forces. Your courage, dedication, and sacrifice protect the freedoms we cherish every day. Our Northwestern community is deeply grateful to our veterans — including staff members, family, and community partners — for their service to our nation. Northwestern alumni (class of 1966), Mr. Donald Putterbaugh, donated benches in honor of all veterans. The memorial can be found on campus out front of the Jr/Sr High School. Let us take this day to reflect on the meaning of service and to express our heartfelt appreciation to all who have worn the uniform. Thank you, veterans. We salute you! #VeteransDay #ThankYouVeterans #WeRemember

Northwestern community, for Veterans Day, students at Northwestern Junior/Senior High School will once again be writing letters as a part of our Veterans Day program activities. As in recent years, veteran alumni will receive letters of thanks and gratitude from students on or shortly after the holiday. While we already have an existing directory of veteran alumni for mailing, if you know an alumni veteran, please click the link below to submit their name and mailing address. We would love to continue to grow our alumni veterans list, update alumni veteran addresses, and above all, to show our thanks and appreciation for our veterans!

Dear Parents and Guardians,
We hope this message finds you well. Beginning this grading period, Northwestern Jr./Sr. High School will make student grade cards available online through ProgressBook on October 24, 2025, for the first quarter. In an effort to improve access to academic information, we will no longer mail hard copies of report cards home.
Parents and guardians can view their child's grades, attendance, and teacher comments directly by logging into their ProgressBook Parent Access account. This allows you to see grades in real time and stay informed about your student's academic progress throughout the school year.
If you do not yet have a ProgressBook account or need assistance accessing it, please contact Jenn Timmons by emailing timmonsj@nwlschools.org for support.
We appreciate your cooperation and partnership as we continue to provide timely and secure access to student information.
Thank you for your continued support of Northwestern Jr./Sr. High School and our students' success.
Sincerely,
Mr. Fries and Mr. Bushey
Principal and Assistant Principal Northwestern Jr./Sr. High School
