Dear Huskie Families,
Here we are….the Seniors last week of classes, celebrations and of course, our graduation ceremony on Sunday!! It has truly been a pleasure to serve the Class of 2024 as principal and I have enjoyed them immensely. We will miss you but will also be watching for the incredible lives you are embarking on and hope that you include us in your accomplishments in the future.
Juniors, in two weeks you will be the leaders of our building and the role models for the classes that come behind you. As we begin the 24-25 school year, I’ll need your help, and that of our sophomores, to fully welcome the Class of 2028 to Naperville North and create that special atmosphere for belonging and pride.
Parents, thank you most of all for your support, kindness and flexibility in what were four years fraught with change, but ended so so well! I am so proud of the Class of 2024!
Thank you for entrusting your students to our care.
Stephanie Posey
Principal
