BUS STOPS -

Parents/Guardians are responsible for the supervision and safety of students from home until they board the school vehicle and from the school vehicle stop to home. It is important that students follow the School Vehicle Behavior Expectations & Safety Requirements for All Students listed on Page 23 in The Student Handbook which includes to wait in a quiet and orderly manner, respect private property and wait in a safe place, clear of traffic, and away from where the school vehicle stops.

PARKING LOTS -

All daily car rider student pick up/drop off should be done using the main school entrance car rider loop. The main entrance visitor parking spots should be used for late arrival/early dismissal.

The Staff Parking Lot (adjacent to the Cafeteria) is only to be used by staff with a Parking Permit issued for the 2023-2024 School Year. This should not be used for student pickup/drop off.

Teacher/Staff/Bus Parking Lot (lower parking lot) is only to be used by Teachers/Staff and Bus Pickup/Drop Off. This should not be used for student pickup/drop off.

Local Business Parking Lots - We have received numerous complaints by several business owners close to the school that their parking lots are being used for student pickup/drop off. This has created an unsafe situation because students are darting in and out of the cars in the lot and there are numerous cars pulling in and out of the lot at the same time. Please only use the Main Entrance loop and visitor parking spaces for student pick up/drop off.

Please remind students to make sure their Chromebooks are charged each night, so that they are fully charged when they return to school the next day.

Northeast High School Counselors

To our eighth grade families, students interested in getting a head start on their career, as well as their post-secondary education, the Center for Applied Technology offers programs of choice during their high school years. The window for application to Center for Applied Technology North (CAT-North) is closing on March 15th. Please click the link below OR ask your school counselor for help.

Students will be asked to choose, in order of preference, ten career areas of interest and will be scheduled into four of those career classes for the Career Exploration experience.

• Students attending Career Exploration will be scheduled for first period on B days. This will be their official class for that day and period. They will not be missing a class at their high school and they will return before the start of second period.​
• Anne Arundel County Public Schools will provide all transportation to and from CAT-North.
