New Northern Middle opens in Calvert County

Calvert public schools’ Superintendent Marcus Newsome noted it had been 22 months since his predecessor and other school and community leaders did the traditional moving of dirt with golden shovels. And now the new Northern Middle School has opened for learning. The project, which was slowed by weather and challenges in obtaining building materials, cost nearly $60 million, which was a combination of state and county funds. The three-story, 109,237-square-foot building, co-located with Northern High on Chaneyville Road in Owings, can accommodate 800 students. With its current enrollment at 715 there’s room for more, although it’s still Calvert County’s most populous middle school. “It takes every department in the school system to make this happen,” the superintendent said during his monthly report to the Calvert County school board Nov. 5. In a matter of hours, the new building went from being a storage site for unopened boxes and bare shelves into a new school. Newsome credited school staff, assisted by honor students from Northern High, with the move from the old school to the new building. “It’s looking amazing,” Ruth Ollie Reist, a Northern High junior and current student member of the board, said of the new facility. Reist was

North Point girls flag football falls in semifinals; Calvert High headed to finals

One year after its inaugural season could be largely described as patently mediocre, the North Point High School girls flag football team was clearly among the most improved squads in the Southern Maryland Athletic Conference this fall. On Tuesday evening, the Eagles came painstakingly close to completing an improbable journey when they suffered a 32-26 setback against defending 4A/3A state champion Clarksburg High in one of two state semifinals. North Point (12-2) had actually scored first on Tuesday then the Eagles countered a Coyotes’ answer with one of their own for a 12-7 lead at the end of the first quarter. One year earlier the Eagles endured a modest 4-6 regular season then won a pair of regional playoff games before falling to Wise in the region final. This year North Point was the SMAC regular season champion and later upended Wise in the region playoffs and Tuesday it hosted the state semifinals against the two-time defending state champions. “We’re definitely heading in the right direction,” said North Point second-year coach Davon Muhammad, a Gwynn Park High alum who is also the College of Southern Maryland women’s basketball head coach. “This team improved considerably from last year when we only
