Academics
NBHS offers many programs to support the interests of all of their students, including all five endorsements. Students are able to select classes that will challenge and prepare them for post-secondary education with the multitude of AP/Dual Credit course offered across the content areas. Staff serving as Career and Technology Education teachers have worked diligently to build a coherent sequence of courses in their respective pathways, including practicum courses.
A large numbers of NBHS students participate in a variety of extra curricular programs such as athletics, band, theater, dance, cheer and many special interest clubs. We continue to promote and recognize service to the community by our students with our Green Cord Award program. We will also use survey data to identify students who are not engaged in school sponsored activities and make efforts to encourage them to get engaged.
