Northwest Area School is a huge part of family and community life. It’s where our children spend their days; it’s where we gather to cheer on the home team, celebrate talent, and promote the pursuit of lifelong learning. This page will help you keep apprised of everything going on. Be sure to check it often.
Northwest Area SD has implemented the Community Eligibility Program (CEP) throughout the 2024–2025 school year. What does this mean for your child/children? He or she is eligible for free breakfast and free lunch at school during the 2024–2025 school year. Your child/children can participate in school breakfast and lunch without having to pay a fee or submit an application. No further action is required by you. For more information, please see the free school meals for students flyer.
Ranger Community,
I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to you today about a matter of utmost importance that affects not only our school district but also the entire community we serve.
As you are aware, the state is currently deliberating on budget proposals that will have far-reaching implications for educational institutions across our region. However, I must express my deep concern regarding the proposed funding allocations for the Northwest Area School District.
Please read the complete May 16 parent letter from Superintendent Joseph Long for more information concerning the district’s funding allocation concerns. We implore you to read the letters below. These are sample letters to legislators outlining our concerns, and we seek your support.
