Dear Parent/Guardian,

Welcome to Northside Elementary! We’re thrilled to have you join our school family for the 2025–2026 school year. It’s an honor to partner with you in your child’s learning journey.

Important Reminders:

• Communication is key! You’ll receive an invitation to join your child’s ParentSquare group at the start of the year. ParentSquare is our main tool for sharing news and updates, and the best way to reach your child’s teacher.

• Meals are free for all students, and all school supplies are provided. We recommend sending a backpack and (optionally) a clear plastic water bottle.  You may also consider purchasing some additional supplies for your child to keep at home.

• Your child’s backpack will serve as a communication folder—check it regularly for notes, work, and report cards.
  
  

For Kindergarten Families:

If you’re new to Northside, please complete Online Registration (OLR) as soon as possible. To get started, please visit our district website, www.harrison.kyschools.us, and click “Online Registration, OLR” in the top right corner.  This is essential for enrollment. Very soon, you’ll also need to submit:  School physical, dental and eye exams, immunization record, birth certificate, and social security card (recommended but not required).  We’re happy to make copies at Northside if needed.

We can’t wait to meet you! If you have any questions, please call us at 859-234-7114.

Very Best,

Joshua Powers, Principal
