FROM THE PRINCIPAL
DEAR STUDENTS, PARENTS, AND PATRONS OF NCHS:
Our Vision is that, "All Pioneers will be responsible for supporting an environment that fosters equitable learning opportunities that challenge academic and personal growth for all individuals."
By focusing on our vision we want every NCHS graduate to attend a post- secondary institution or military. Today’s job market isn’t what it was ten or twenty years ago and as a result, students need the additional training for their chosen career. I don’t care if it is a traditional college, military, a two-year college, a vocational school, or trade school, everyone needs the education to find success in their lives. Every student will need some type of training regardless of his or her chosen career. Over the past five years, 87% of NCHS graduates enrolled in a post-secondary institution or joined the military. This is a good number, but we want to keep moving forward so that EVERY graduate finds success.
Please know that I am available to meet with you in person or talk to you over the telephone to discuss your child’s education. As the instructional leader of this campus I am responsible for all decisions made in the best interest of your child. I look forward to a great year and to meeting all our new students and families.
Sincerely,
BRIAN HOOVER – NCHS PRINCIPAL
