Northwest Prep Academy

The last few weeks have been busy ones at Northwest Prep. In October, Alex Eilers, a Pink Palace educational researcher spoke to the Social Studies students about her upcoming research expedition to Antarctica. The students were able to gain hands on experiences by trying on the cold-weather clothes and touch the research equipment.

The seniors’ journey to Huntsville, AL to visit the Space Institute and to tour Alabama A&M was a huge success.  Students were given a tour of the school and allowed a opportunity to complete applications during the visit.  

The Men of Distinction gathered food baskets to give to the Union Mission for the Thanksgiving season and continued their generosity during Christmas by sponsoring Toys for Tots with MIFA. The Men of Distinction also welcomed a guest speaker, Tony Wade who inspired the men to become better citizens and encourage other people. The men appeared to react positively to his message and encouragement.

The last nine weeks have been busy with testing, senior activities and other extra-curricular activities but a good time has been had by all.
