It is always awesome to feel the energy and excitement on the first day. Thank you staff for all of the positivity you started classes with, and for the small moments- the fist bumps, high-fives, helping lost students, etc., that made it a welcoming first day!

On Tuesday, June 10, NFHS hosted its annual SEE Fair for students to share their Senior Enrichment Experience (SEE) with the community. For the past three weeks, NFHS seniors undertook internships at a wide range of locations to gain real-world experiences, communication skills, and organization strategies. From interning in the Connecticut State Senate to learning about business management at a Pawling, NY, horse farm, students explored a variety of interests as they prepare to take the next steps towards their goals beyond graduation.

Starting April 29th, for grades 3-8, SBA testing will begin. This state assessment provides us with valuable information about where students are in their learning journey. We analyze this data closely to guide our instructional decisions and ensure that we are meeting the needs of every student. We appreciate your support in encouraging your child to do their best on these assessments by getting plenty of rest, eating a healthy breakfast, and arriving at school on time.
