PRINCIPAL'S MESSAGE
Dear Panther Families,
As we near the midpoint of the second nine weeks, I want to encourage everyone to stay engaged with their studies and make the most of these valuable weeks. This time of year can be a challenge to stay focused with the holidays approaching, but finishing the semester strong will help each student succeed. Please remember to monitor assignment due dates and take advantage of any extra help or resources available.
We’re also excited to tip off basketball season! Join us in supporting our teams at games and showing that Panther pride. Your enthusiasm makes a big difference to our athletes and creates an incredible atmosphere for everyone involved.
Lastly, as we prepare for the upcoming holidays, let’s continue to support each other as a community. If you have any questions or need additional support for your student, please don’t hesitate to reach out. We’re here to help each student thrive.
Thank you for all you do to support our school and students!

PARENT CENTER
Conduct at Sporting Events
Parents,
Our athletes work hard to represent NHS with dedication and skill, and we want our fans to support them in a way that reflects the spirit of respect, sportsmanship, and unity we hold so dear.
We encourage everyone attending our games to show support in a way that uplifts our team and respects our opponents, referees, and fellow fans.
Celebrating our players' achievements and respecting others, win or lose, helps create a positive environment that makes NHS events memorable for everyone.
Let’s make each game a proud moment for our school community. Thank you for helping us model great sportsmanship and ensuring that NHS stands out not only for our talent but also for our character.
Go Panthers!
Senior Information
Remember that we have a Senior website to help communicate important happenings throughout the year. Check it out!
Fantastic Fridays
We want to remind everyone about the importance of making the most of our Fantastic Friday rotations. These are 3 dedicated 45-minute opportunities each Friday for students to meet with teachers for tutorials, make up missed assignments, and finish any outstanding homework. This time is invaluable for staying on top of academic responsibilities.
We encourage all students to take full advantage of this time to ensure academic success. If you have any questions or need guidance on how your student can make the most of these sessions, please reach out to your child's teachers.
Yearly Meal Applications
Please read the flyers below from Mrs. Shaffer. There are more benefits than just free/reduced lunch prices.
Counseling Referral Form
This is a referral form that will allow students, parents, teachers, etc, to have the ability to refer a student that needs to possibly talk to Mrs. Martin.
