Our first week of the 2023-24 school year went off without a hitch—and now it's time to party! We're looking forward to bringing the Northwest Academy community together this afternoon for our 4th Annual Back to School Block Party! See you all there!

Our inaugural 9th Grade Seminar class started the year by creating vision boards sharing their hopes, dreams, & inspirations for the school year. Sharing the boards was a fun way to build community & find shared interests among these new-to-high-schoolers! #findyourpeople

Northwest Academy has been a part of Portland's downtown community since the beginning, and there's nowhere else we'd rather be! Our black and white photography students bopped down the street to take advantage of the action in the downtown Portland Farmers Market market this week!

Last Wed–Fri, we embarked on our annual fall retreats where students and teachers go to bond. 6th graders remained on campus; 7th graders went to Molalla Retreat; and 8th graders went to Anderson Lodge. All of our high schoolers were together at BB Camp in Lincoln City!

It's Spirit Week at Northwest Academy! So far, we've had pajama day, decades day, and students dress as teachers/teachers dress as students day. We love the looks so far and can't wait for the dress like a celebrity day and heroes vs villains day looks!

The 7th-grade Project Citizen class finished one of our favorite projects in the Food Justice unit—writing a letter of appreciation to a person or organization doing good work around food activism, food access, culture, or resilience, spreading joy & appreciation far and wide!
