Greetings, 


Our PTL has an exciting month planned, and it’s off to a fantastic start! The Haunted Hayride and Bates Motel event on Thursday the 17th was a huge hit! Northley students enjoyed VIP treatment, skipping the lines and riding in Viking-only trailers (see picture below). We also had a great time keeping an eye out for the Comet Tsuchinshan-ATLAS and the beautiful Hunter’s Moon last night. 


Next up, on Friday, October 25, is the annual PTL Haunted Hallway and Dance for 6th and 7th graders from 7:00 to 9:00 PM. Students can submit permission forms and purchase tickets during lunch. We’re excited for another fun-filled event, thanks to our amazing PTL! 


Looking ahead, Fall Conferences are just over a month away. They will be held on Monday, November 25 (afternoon and evening sessions) and Tuesday, November 26 (afternoon only). More detailed conference information will be sent out on Friday, October 25. 


Wishing you all a safe and relaxing weekend! 


Thank you,

Ryan M. Buterbaugh

Principal
