WALNUT GROVE ELEMENTARY SCHOOL

K-12 Schools

Description

We presently serve children by providing a wide range of services. Northview was one of the first schools in the district to provide "inclusion" services to students with special needs. Our Title 1 program also targets those students grades K-3 with reading support. Northview also has two full-time resource room teachers and one full-time speech and language teacher to support targeted and identified students.

Children attending Northview reside in single-family homes and duplexes. Due to Northview's geographic location, new residential development is virtually nonexistent within our boundaries. As the neighborhood has matured, and new growth has expanded away from the center of the city, the climate of Northview has changed. Northview now serves a blend of white-collar workers, blue-collar workers, retired persons, families in government subsidized housing, and families receiving other types of government assistance. With the opening of the Salvation Army Lodge in 1996, Northview has served as the home school for homeless children residing there. We have developed a positive rapport with the Lodge, and the Family Investment Resource Center, also serving the Lodge children. We pride ourselves on meeting the needs of each of our students! Proactive communication, interventions, and an invitational philosophy help ease the transitions these students often experience.
