We are hosting a College Fair on Tuesday (January 14th) from 5:30 pm until 7:00 pm in the NHS Gymnasium. All area high school students and their parents are invited to attend this event, and prior registration is not required. Visit the NHS website for more information: https://www.sbac.edu/Page/31745. Make sure to speak with your NHS Guidance Counselor if you have any questions. We look forward to seeing you then!

REMINDER: Panthers, don't forget to bring your laptop and charging cord to school EVERY DAY as most of the testing this year will be done on the laptops. Additionally, these laptops provide important access to digital textbooks and assist students in transitioning between classwork, testing, and homework. (If your laptop has stopped working or has other operational issues, please bring it so the NHS Site Tech, Mr. Phillips, can investigate and diagnose any issues.)

For anyone interested in trying out for Baseball: Conditioning and arm care workouts have started and will be held everyday this week right after school down at the NHS Baseball Field. Baseball tryouts will be held on Monday (January 13th) right after school at the field. You must have your physical and athletic clearance completed before being eligible to try out.

Students, please remember that even though it is getting cooler outside blankets are not allowed at school. Also, you must still follow all dress code policies, including not wearing pajamas, slippers, or any type of head coverings. If you have any questions, please see Dean Burford or Dean Hines.

Lady Panthers, if you are interested in trying out for the tennis team this year, there will be an informational meeting before school tomorrow at 8:15 am in Mr. Marlowe’s classroom.

There will be an information meeting for any girls interested in playing Flag Football for NHS tomorrow in the NHS Commons Area during both Lunch A and Lunch B. If you have any questions, make sure to see Coach Hughes.

Softball tryouts will be held promptly at 3:30 pm on Tuesday (January 21st) at the NHS Softball Field. Any girls interested in trying out for the NHS softball program will need to have all physical and participation forms completed prior to the tryout date. If the appropriate forms are not complete, you may not try out. Forms can be found in the NHS Front Office and online. Please bring all equipment needed to run, field, catch, throw, and hit. If you have any additional questions, see Mrs. Coach Roundtree.

We are committed to the success of ALL our students! Panthers, please remember the Panther way to Success:

*Be Reliable - Maintain consistency with what you say and do

*Be Respectful - Show consideration of someone or something

*Be Responsible - Be dependable, keep promises, and honor commitments
