Open House Next Thursday!
Welcoming New & Returning Families to NFHS!
We are excited to invite our families to NFHS Open House next Thursday, September 12 at NFHS.
The Principal's Welcome will begin at 6:30pm in the Theater, where Mr. D'Amico will introduce you to many of the people who work hard to provide the best experience possible for your students, and share our goals for the year that require a partnership between the school and families.
This will be followed by the stars of the show-our teachers! You'll follow your student's schedule through the building and meet their teachers in our wonderful learning spaces. Throughout the evening you'll also have the opportunity to meet your child's school counselor. The NFHS PTO, All-Sports Boosters, and Fine Arts Boosters will be available so that you can earn how to join and support these organizations dedicated to helping our students thrive.
Parking for the event will be in the main staff lot, in the bus loop, and in the new parking lot behind the school. Both the main entrance and the public/staff entrance will be open for you to enter. We anticipate high attendance and encourage you to plan for traffic on campus.
Below, please find links to the schedule for the evening and to a blank schedule that you should fill in with your student prior to arriving for Open House.
We look forward to seeing you on Thursday!
