We had a great visit with Mrs. Harper, Mr. Coffman and some former Northpoint students this morning. They were full of information for us about the upcoming school year and our transition to Discovery. There is an important yellow packet that is full of important dates and information that should be shared tonight at home. Please make special note of the date in which parents and students are invited to Discovery in the evening for an orientation...you won't want to miss it.
