partnership between the IHSAA and Special Olympics Indiana that promotes servant leadership among student-athletes while changing their lives as well as the lives of those with intellectual disabilities. On February 14th, our Unified Basketball team will be participating in a game during the boys’ junior varsity and varsity basketball games. Part of the partnership with Champions Together is to fundraise with proceeds going to Special Olympics Indiana and Northview Unified. Our school and community surpassed all our goals last year and created “Northview Unified.” Let’s do it again this year!

Congratulations to Coach Logue and the Ethics Bowl Teams. Both teams qualified for the quarter-finals, with one team advancing to the Semi-finals. NHS Team’s performance earned them an invitation to compete at a National Tournament at DePauw this summer!
