Picture Day Details:

Fall Underclass: December 4, 2024

If you missed your chance to get your senior picture taken this past summer, here is your last chance!

Lifetouch will now be at NCHS on Tuesday November 12th, 2024 and Wednesday November 13th, 2024 to take senior yearbook pictures.

Please click this link to sign up! Please select the state (Maryland) and type in the city (Ridgely) to navigate to the NCHS sign up page!

Again, this is your LAST CHANCE to get your picture taken for the yearbook. No personal pictures are to be submitted for the yearbook.

In order to effectively manage our growing student population attending our home varsity football games, the NCHS administration will be enacting the following ticket purchasing procedures beginning this Friday.

Procedures for Purchasing a Student Ticket for Home Varsity Football Games :

1. Students must obtain a wristband during lunch on Friday of the game in order to purchase a ticket at the gate. Students who are absent from school, on principal probation, or otherwise ineligible will be unable to obtain a wristband.

2. Students will not be able to purchase a ticket at the gate without a wristband.

3. Please be advised- students who are even considering attending and eligible should obtain a wristband during lunch or they will be denied entry at the gate.

We appreciate everyone's cooperation as we work through this new process. Please direct all questions to the NCHS administrative team.

We look forward to our first home game and hearing everyone shout "We Are Bulldogs" loud and proud from the stands.

Administration:

Ms. Crystal Drexel - Assistant Principal (9th grade)

Mr. Thomas Jefferson- Assistant Principal (10th grade)

Ms. Chasity Wright - Assistant Principal (11th grade)

Guidance Counselors:

Ms. Virginia Belay (A-D)

Mr. Mike Firch (E--Li)

Ms. Jackie Holtzman (Lo--Rh)

Ms. Ann Ferkler (Ri-Z)
