NCHSweeklyupdate

Today, we had a moment of silence in honor of the anniversary of September 11, 2001. My cousin, Joseph Patrick Henry, was a fireman with Ladder #21 and was killed on 9/11. There are so many personal stories that so many of us can share, but I thought I would share a link to an article about Joey published four years ago . 9/11 has had a lasting effect on my family as I am sure that it has on many of yours. Additionally, I wanted to share a video that was created by our students years ago to honor Brad Fetchet and Jack Dempsey, former NCHS students.
