Northwest Local School District

Parents Message 8.15.25 Welcome Back to School!

Posted Date: 8/15/25 (9:53 AM)

Hello to All in the Northwest Family!

I hope everyone had a restful and joyful summer! We are excited to see everyone back at school! Our first day back with students as we begin our phase-in process is Wednesday, August 20!

To all of our students: This school year is a fresh chapter—a chance to set new goals, make new friends, and embrace opportunities to learn, grow, and discover your potential. Our teachers, staff, and administrators are excited to support you every step of the way.

Remember, every day is a chance to try something new, to ask questions, and to show kindness. For all of us at Northwest, this is another chance to build a community where everyone feels valued, respected, and inspired to do their best every single day.

I hope all of our students are ready for hard work, laughter, and achievements we can all be proud of. I believe in each of you, and I can’t wait to see what we accomplish together.

To all of our parents, please be on the lookout for my parents' messages I send out each week or two. I try to include newsworthy information to keep all of you informed. In fact, next week, I will have information for you on our parents rights policy that our school board approved last July. This is a policy that will continue to develop a stronger relationship between the school district and you. We will have more information out to you very soon!

As always, if you have questions or concerns on anything happening at school contact me, the principals, and/or your child's teachers. You can reach me anytime at 330-573-9024. Our relationship with you is vital for your child's success! 

Welcome back, and let’s make it a great year!

Respectfully,

Shawn Braman
