Hello Faith North Community,
The nip is in the air and I think we are all breathing a sigh of relief. The children have planted autumn squash that are growing so quickly! We hope you can join us for a work day in the garden on Saturday, October 25th as we further prepare the rest of the beds so that the students can plant and we can all enjoy the "vegetables" of our labor!
As of this writing our 7th/8th grade basketball team is undefeated with a four game winning streak. The games are so exciting and I believe that they will sweep the series. You should plan to attend one of the games, there is extraordinary talent. The next two games will be held at Herrera, October 15th as North faces Garfield, 5:30 tipoff. October 17th North verses Whittier at 6:15.
There are so many exciting events in our community this month. We look forward to seeing you at a few!
All the best,
Susan Engdall

9th Afterschool classes begin
11th Site Council/PTA FNM@Shaw campus
28th Night at the Ballpark
Hello Faith North Community,
What a great month of August, aside for the heat, the children have settled in and are enjoying work and community.
This week we will have our first community event, our Family Game Night with Bingo and Spaghetti. As I write, the upper elementary classroom is madly making 250 helpings of spaghetti sauce to serve us on Friday. The have figure quantity, disputed quality and chopped onions until they were in tears. It has been a joyful process to watch.
This week also heralded the beginning of basketball practice for the North Stars 7th/8th grade basketball team. We hope you will join us for a few games. Last year was a very exciting season with our own Jaran Whitfield winning MVP for the entire district.
The end of the month will also mark the beginning of travel for our middle school students. They will depart for their first of 3 land lab experiences to Sky Y in Prescott where they will take part in several personal challenges as they work through the many facets of their Heroic Journey Year. It is a fascinating experience for them. Perhaps you could take the time to engage one in a conversation about their plans.
All the best,
