Our Winter Pep Rally is tomorrow, Thursday, December 4th. We will be recognizing all of our varsity winter sports athletes, including Boys' and Girls' Soccer, Boys' and Girls' Basketball, Girls' Weightlifting, and Competitive Cheer.
If your child will NOT be attending the Pep Rally and wishes to check out early, please send a written note giving your permission for their early release (please include your signature, printed name, and phone number) and instruct them to submit the note in Cafeteria 1 at the designated table before heading to their 1st period class. All notes must be turned in by the end of 1st period.
Students who do not bring a note tomorrow morning but wish to check out before the Pep Rally will have to have a parent/guardian pick up the student in person. We will not release students otherwise. Students do have the opportunity to wait in the cafeteria during the Pep Rally if they'd rather not attend and are unable to check-out.
All of our winter teams are off to fabulous starts, and we are thrilled to celebrate them tomorrow! We hope your student will plan to join us!
Final Exams will be here before you know it! Be sure to keep an eye on your grades, and remember that GPAs will be calculated for first semester performance and noted on your Report Card, which will be available in FOCUS on January 16th, 2026.
Please reach out if you have any questions or concerns. We are always happy to help!

Enjoy this week's Raider Report!
NHS will be closed next week for the Thanksgiving Holiday. We wish all of our Raider families a restful and rejuvenating week of gratefulness. We are abundantly thankful for YOU!

Come have dinner with us tonight at Panera Bread between 4 and 8 PM, and 25% of your purchase will be donated back to NHS and our Extra Degree program!

We hope to see you there!

We want to make you aware that there is backed up traffic on High School Boulevard this morning due to an accident involving an adult pedestrian who was struck by an SUV on the sidewalk. We are relieved to share that everyone involved is okay.
Please expect delays in traffic flow near campus. We will be flexible with student arrival times today, as we understand this may impact morning transportation.
Thank you for your understanding and patience.

PARENTS OF SENIORS:
The Florida Bright Futures Scholarship provides three levels of financial assistance to students continuing their education after high school. Eligible students can potentially receive up to FULL COLLEGE TUITION to a Florida Public University. Students can apply NOW to floridastudentfinancialaid.org.
The United States Department of Education also provides students with financial aid through FAFSA. This money can be used at many universities all over the U.S., as well as in the state of Florida. Students can apply NOW to studentaid.gov.
For more information, please click on SENIORS under the Guidance tab at our school’s website.
You don't want to miss out on these opportunities for financial assistance with your continued education, so apply today!


ATTENTION PARENTS:
If your child had free or reduced meals at school last year, the grace period for the new school year has ended.
Until you complete the application for the new school year, your child will be charged at the regular price for meals, and that cost is the responsibility of the parent/guardian.
Please renew your child's benefits by completing the QUICK application at myschoolapps.com.
Thank you!
