Thank you for taking the time to visit our webpage, I hope you do it often. 

As superintendent of schools in Northfield, I take great pride in our skilled and knowledgeable administrators, faculty and staff.  In addition, I am also very proud of our students and their family members.  It has been my pleasure to have served the Northfield district over the past 20 years in different capacities.  First I have served as the coordinator of curriculum, then as your coordinator of special education and over the past 17 years, I served as the elementary school principal.

My vision is for the Northfield School administrators, faculty and staff to continue on their path of partnering with families and community to create the optimum educational opportunities for our students.
Please take the time to read all about our district and our community groups as well.  Take a look under Community Groups in the upper right side of the Homepage, take a moment to read about our Parent Teachers Organization (PTO) and about our Northfield Education Foundation (NEF).  These two groups made up of parents, community members and school staff provide a great deal to our Northfield students.  Please get involved in both.

In addition, our School Age Child care program (S.A.C.C.) which offers child care in the morning and after school hours, is getting a new look and feel in the coming months.  Watch for the announcements.
Please, become a true partner with us in the education of your child(ren).  There are so many ways to make that happen.  Do not hesitate to call, or make an appointment or email our principals, our supervisor of instruction, or me for ideas.

Looking forward to a wonderful 2009-10 school year for all of us!

Fondly,

Janice DeCicco Fipp, Ed.D.
