Northern Middle School to offer 'Life Skills Reboot' next fall, board told
Summary
The district reported Northern Middle School will launch a 'Life Skills Reboot' class covering career exploration, functional wellness and financial literacy with two sections per semester starting next fall, based on parent survey data.
Mrs. Ryan told the board Northern Middle School plans to offer a new elective called "Life Skills Reboot" beginning next fall. The course responds to parent survey results and will cover topics such as career exploration, functional wellness (nutrition and meal planning) and basic financial literacy, with two sections each semester expected at launch.
Mrs. Ryan said the class was developed from parent and student input and that school staff believe there is sufficient interest to run two sections per semester. The report notes the course was designed to round out middle‑school offerings and that administrators are "excited about that." No formal vote was recorded in the transcript excerpt; the item was described as informational during the superintendent/board reports section.
