Dear Parents/Guardians,
As you have likely noticed, construction has begun on the tennis courts located to the southeast of our building. On March 18, the NCUSD 203 Board of Education accepted a bid to completely rebuild the Naperville North tennis courts. While aesthetic renovations have been accomplished over the years, no full reconstruction has been done since the original installation in the mid 1970's. The removal of the old courts and re-grading of the surface is happening now. In the next few weeks, our construction vendor will be pouring the huge concrete slab that will serve as the base for our new courts. It will seem that no work is occurring during the early portion of the summer as the concrete slab must cure for several weeks.
Nevertheless, the plan is to have the courts ready for the girls tennis season on August 12, 2024. We appreciate the Huskie Community’s patience as this major project will cause some inconveniences over the next few months. It is likely that we will communicate different traffic patterns on campus for summer camps that begin in early June. We would also like to extend a “thank you” to the Naperville Park District who has graciously shared the tennis courts at Nike Park for the boys tennis season this spring!
Thank you for entrusting your students to our care.
Stephanie Posey
Principal

Senior Signs: We are looking for Senior Sign distribution volunteers. It's that time of year when we celebrate our graduating seniors. Sign up to deliver signs to seniors' front yards the weekend of May 3rd - 5th. Senior Sign Pick-Up will be May 2nd after school at NNHS (details to follow.) It takes over 80 volunteers to make all of this happen and is one of the most beloved traditions at NNHS. Please volunteer. It's super easy and guaranteed to put a smile on our seniors' faces.
