Our instrumental music department hosted its annual Pancake & Sausage Breakfast, and once again, the student performances were incredible. The talent and dedication on display never cease to amaze us!
Events like this wouldn’t be possible without the many volunteers and custodial staff who work behind the scenes to make everything run smoothly. We’re so grateful to everyone who came out to help and support our students.
Here are just a few of the amazing faces who made it all happen—thank you! 💙






The Middlebury Community Schools Board of Trustees has approved a naming rights agreement for the Northridge High School soccer facility, also frequently used for lacrosse. While the field itself will continue to be known as Todd Woodworth Field, the entire facility—including competition fields, concession and locker room building, press box, and practice areas—will now be referred to as the Teledata Athletic Complex.
This agreement reflects a new partnership between Teledata and Middlebury Community Schools, supporting the vision and direction of the school district. Teledata is a telecommunications and IT provider based in Goshen, specializing in cabling, fiber optics, and security systems for businesses and homes. Teledata has committed to a five-year financial partnership beginning in July 2026. MCS Superintendent Dr. Jayson Snyder said, “We’re truly grateful for our partnership with Teledata and their investment in our students, athletes, and facilities. Support like this helps us continue delivering exceptional opportunities while maintaining the high-quality environment our community expects.” Northridge High School Athletic Director Ryan Bales added, “We appreciate Teledata’s commitment to our athletic programs and student-athletes. This partnership will have a lasting impact on our facilities and the experiences we can provide for our community.”

We had so much fun welcoming Silly Safari to the school! They put on an amazing educational presentation, teaching our students all about how different kinds of animals live and thrive in the wild.
The best part? Students even got the hands-on opportunity to pet some of their new furry, feathery, and scaly friends! 🥰 It is safe to say everyone had an absolutely wonderful time learning and interacting with these amazing creatures.








Bestowed by the Governor of Indiana, the Sagamore of the Wabash recognizes individuals who have made significant contributions to their communities and demonstrated distinguished service to the state. Dr. Augustine exemplifies these qualities through her unwavering commitment to students, the arts, and the Northridge community.
A dedicated educator of 51 years, and the last 46 years at Northridge High School, Dr. Augustine has left a lasting impact on generations of students. In the classroom, she inspires a love of literature, critical thinking, and student voice. On the stage, she brings stories to life—creating opportunities for students to grow in confidence, collaboration, and creativity. Her leadership in Northridge’s theater program has not only elevated performances but also built a culture where every student feels valued and empowered.
“Dr. Augustine has a remarkable ability to connect with students and bring out their very best,” said Dr. Jayson Snyder, Superintendent of Middlebury Community Schools. “Whether in her classroom or directing a production, she creates meaningful experiences that stay with students long after they leave Northridge. This recognition is incredibly well deserved.”
Northridge High School and Middlebury Community Schools congratulate Dr. Augustine on this prestigious honor and thank her for the countless ways she makes a difference each and every day.
