First Day Welcome!

Dear Students and Parents,
On behalf of faculty and staff, I would like to welcome you back to New Canaan High School.   I can honestly say that there is no greater day in the school year than the day we welcome students back in the building.  I hope that each and every one of you achieve your academic and personal goals and that you love your time at NCHS.

Have a great year!
Bill Egan
Principal

Dear NCHS Family, School Picnic: On Monday, New Canaan High School gathered for an all school picnic. The entire school community had a great time. It was an opportunity to celebrate what has been a wonderful school year. Governor’s Scholar: Mr. Gusitsch had the opportunity to attend the Governor’s Scholar Luncheon at the Aqua Turf. The program recognizes academically talented Grade Eleven students throughout the state. A junior must be in the top 5% of their class and then they must be selected from a field of over 150 entries.
