Students, faculty, and families decked the halls before leaving campus to celebrate the holidays. Lexi Hooper '20 and Aude-Marie Ackebo '18 sing for a jam-packed Northwood Living Room before the arrival of some very special guests.

Alumni, faculty, and families gathered at the Lotos Club in New York City in early December to kick off the holiday season, including alumni from the last decade featured above.  The event is made possible by Trustee and host Charles Morgan '52 and his wife Elsbeth and has become a much anticipated annual tradition. 

The Advancement Office sat down with Ms. Noël Carmichael, 9th grade English teacher and class dean to find out what prompted her move across the globe — and back again — and the things she loves to do both in the classroom and out.

On the evening of Friday, October 13th, a group of 14 students climbed and camped overnight on Cobble for a trip planned and led by Northwood’s Outdoor Leadership Education class, under the guidance of Mr. Jim Dingle. For 11 of those students, it was their first wilderness camping experience. 

Northwood's new academic year kicked off over Labor Day weekend with the largest 9th grade class in the school's history.  A group of 32 ninth grade boarding and day students —  many of them  crammed into Mrs. Ransom's already tight quarters at left — were selected from a deep and impressive pool of applicants.
