Welcome to the official GCSD page! Northwood Middle has a long-standing commitment to excellence. Every classroom is equipped with a Promethean Board.

Northwood Middle School was opened in 1965 as a combination elementary and middle school. In 2008 NMS moved into a new building, which came equipped with state-of-the-art technology. There are three computer labs, as well as three portable computer labs. We presently have approximately 835 students with 55 teachers. The purpose of Northwood Middle School is to assist all students in attaining their fullest potential as a contributing member of society. We believe that each student has unique abilities and the potential for learning. The home, community, student, and school share responsibility in the learning process. The home, community, student, and school will work as a team. Learning is a continuous and life-long process. The school will promote respect, responsibility, and integrity. The inclusion of cultural diversity enriches the learning environment. Content Disclaimer:

🔬🧪 SCIENCE IN ACTION! 🌎⚔️

Our 7th Grade Knights took learning beyond the classroom during their field trip to Roper Mountain Science Center! 💙

Students became environmental scientists for the day, tackling real-world challenges through three hands-on labs!

⚡ Clean Energy: Generated hydrogen gas from water while exploring the Law of Conservation of Mass.

🧪 Chemical Detectives: Identified mystery substances using their physical and chemical properties.

🌱 Going Green: Tested biodegradable alternatives to everyday plastics to explore ways to reduce waste and protect our environment.

What a great opportunity for our Knights to apply classroom learning, think critically, and solve real-world problems!

Way to go, Knights! 💙⚔️

Also BIG shout out to our parent chaperones! You make trips like this possible and we are grateful!
