Dear NCHS Family, Monday night is our annual Open House. Freshmen Parent Orientation will begin at 6:30 pm and the first bell is at 7:15 pm.   Open House is co-sponsored by NCHS and the Parent Faculty Association (PFA). This event provides an opportunity for you to become acquainted with the high school's Program of Study and to meet your child’s teachers. The evening's format does not allow for individual parent-teacher conferences, but such meetings can always be arranged at mutually convenient time in the future.  Please click here for more about Open House .   Also, please plan to arrive early as it is one of the busiest evenings of the year.   As always, thank you for your support!
