North Division Alumni Association hosts first "Lunch with Students" of 2017 On Thursday, September 21, 2017, the North Division Alumni Association hosted its first "Lunch with Students" of the 2017-2018 school year. "Lunch With Students" will take place the third Thursday of each month during first and second lunch period. The goal with these sessions is for students to get to know the North Division alumni volunteers and to learn what concerns the current student body has and how best the alumni association can address them. In previous years, these sessions have lead to the alumni association setting up a volunteer after school tutoring program, starting a holiday food bank for student families in need, and gathering donated clothing and personal care products for students in need. www.milwaukeetimesnews.com
