Students in Principles of Technology had to design and plan Halloween inspired gingerbread houses to meet specified dimensions. They had to ensure that their homemade walls could be supported by their homemade adhesive. As we built we did structural analysis of our materials. They also got to be creative and decorate their houses in a Halloween theme.





Help us spread the word!

Congratulations to our students and staff!

Northwest JH/HS is one of the best in the state of Missouri in Academic Growth!
Northwest is 1 of 3 non-charter public schools out of the 502 MS/JH schools in the state of Missouri, to earn this honor. "They have exhibited some of the highest average post-COVID growth in the state in both ELA and Math." The PRiME Center at SLU works jointly with DESE to produce research and data for the Missouri Growth Model, and Northwest consistently ranks at the top in both ELA and Math.
Great Job to all teachers and staff in the District to earn this honor, and more specifically to our JH Math teacher, LaChere Marsh, and our JH ELA teacher, Amy Killion!
