    Smiles on Wheels is Coming to North Elementary

    We’re excited to share that Smiles on Wheels will be visiting North Elementary next week to provide optional dental services right here at school! This wonderful program helps make it easy and convenient for families to ensure their child’s smile stays healthy and bright.

    If you’d like your child to receive dental services, please return the permission form that was sent home as soon as possible. Smiles on Wheels offers cleanings, sealants, and other preventive care in a friendly and familiar setting. No need to schedule an extra appointment outside of school! Please note: Dental services will be billed to your dental insurance if available.

    It’s also important to note that all Kindergarten (not Early Kindergarten) students will receive a free dental screening as part of Michigan’s state health requirements. These screenings are provided at no cost to families through a partnership between the Health Department and the Smiles on Wheels organization.

    We’re grateful for programs like this that help keep our students healthy and smiling every day.

    Precautionary K9 Search

    Dear Parents and Guardians,

    We want to inform you that our downtown campus was in a brief lockdown this morning as part of a routine safety procedure. K9 units conducted a search of the school this morning to ensure the continued safety of all students and staff.

    Please be assured that this was a precautionary measure, and there was no threat to our school community. All students and staff remained safe, and normal school activities will resume shortly.

    We appreciate your understanding and support as we continue to prioritize the safety of everyone on campus.

    OK2SAY Presentations

    Dear Parents and Guardians,

    Our schools will be hosting a presentation on OK2SAY, Michigan’s student safety program for students in grades 4-12. This program teaches students how to help make their school and community safer by reporting dangerous or concerning behaviors to a trusted adult or directly through OK2SAY.

    Please review the attached letter for more information and instructions on how to opt your student out if you choose: Parent_Notification__Opt-Out_Form.pdf

    We also invite parents and guardians to attend an important OK2SAY Parent Presentation on Thursday, November 6, 2025, at 6:15 p.m. in the High School Auditorium.

    During this session, you will learn how students can confidentially report safety concerns and how we can collectively promote a culture of awareness and prevention.

    For those who prefer to join from home, we’re offering the option to attend via Zoom. To ensure a secure experience, all attendees, both in-person and virtual, must register in advance using our Google Form.

    Registered participants will receive the Zoom link before the event.

    We encourage all families to attend this valuable presentation to learn more about keeping our students and community safe.

    Celebrating our Community

    Our 2nd graders have been busy learning all about what makes a community special! As part of a Unit 1 project, students explored who helps make our community a great place to live.

    Each student wrote about their favorite parts of our community and illustrated their writing with colorful, detailed drawings. We loved seeing how they noticed the little things that make Iron Mountain such a wonderful place to call home!

    Their hard work shows not only their growing writing skills but also their appreciation for the people and places around them. Great job Mountaineers!
