NOHS Newsletter
August 7, 2026
Dear Mustangs,
We are officially in the full swing of fall! The leaves are putting on their best show of reds, golds, and oranges, and the cold temperatures are creeping in, which means it’s time to dig out the hoodies, scarves, and gloves we packed away in the spring. We just wrapped up a full five-day week, and I think we can all agree it felt like a small miracle. Even better, we get another one next week! Thanksgiving is just two weeks away, so enjoy the long stretch while you can, because that two-day Thanksgiving week will be here before we know it.
Go Mustangs! Playoff Football Tonight!
Tonight is a big one! Our North Oldham football team takes on Franklin County in the second round of the playoffs, and we are seeking a record 11th straight win. These student-athletes have worked incredibly hard all season, and they’ve earned the chance to keep this run going. Let’s pack the stadium and show them the kind of support that only the North community can give!
Game Details and Reminders
Kickoff is at 7:30 p.m. The forecast calls for cold temperatures, so please dress warm. Layers, blankets, hats, and gloves are your friends!
Sports passes will not be accepted. Since this is a playoff game, everyone over 10 years old must purchase a ticket.
Students who are not in high school must be accompanied by a parent or guardian and monitored at all times.
No outside food or drink may be brought into the stadium.
No balls are allowed in the stadium.
Good sportsmanship and appropriate behavior are expected at all times. Let’s cheer loudly for our team and show respect to our opponents, officials, school employees, and fellow fans.
Fill the Bus Food Drive
North is a truly special place, and what makes it so great is the people who make up our community. Our Fill the Bus food drive is a wonderful opportunity to give back to neighbors in need. I encourage all families to donate any of the items listed on the flyer in this week’s newsletter. Your generosity makes a real difference, and I thank you in advance for helping us fill that bus!
Enjoy the game tonight, bundle up, and let’s go get that 11th straight win!
Go Mustangs!
