NHHS Weekly Update

Week 12, Veterans Day Holiday Wed. Nov. 11

God Bless America! Land that I love. Stand beside her and guide her Wildcats! Veterans we hope you have had a great day! We honor you for your service!

No Tardy Passes, Check-in at Front Office after 8:45 am

Tomorrow, Wildcats remember that we will begin our new plan and procedures for tardies. We will not have students pick up a pass at tardy pass stations. Students will go directly to their classes. If students are late, Teachers will document the tardy and follow the steps outlined in our Tardy Procedures. Instead of handing out Tardy passes, we will Positively Sweep students to class. Students that arrive to class after 8:45 am should check-in through the front office and will receive a Green Office Corridor Pass from Ms. Chorba. Students checking into school throughout the day will report to the attendance office to check-in and receive a Green Corridor Pass from Ms. Chorba.

Color-coded Passes and Lanyards

Wildcats we will also begin our new hallway pass procedures tomorrow as well. Students will need a Color-coded Corridor Pass or the Color-coded Corridor Lanyard when leaving the classroom to go to the bathroom or any other location on campus. Students are required to use the restroom located on the floor where their class is assigned. Parents, please help us reinforce this expectation with students. If a student does not have a Color-coded Corridor Pass or Color-coded Lanyard, or are not on the correct floor they will be returned to class to get a pass. Included are the Color Coded Corridor Pass colors:

1st floor - Red
2nd floor - Orange
3rd floor - Yellow
4th floor - Green
5th floor - Blue
George West 2nd floor - Indigo
Shops/WR/JROTC- Violet

Students, we need you in class to maximize your learning. We are limiting the number of students with passes in the hallway. Students will need to show their Color-coded Lanyard or Pass to any adult that requests. This is to maintain a safe environment on campus. We need all students to comply with the request from adults to see these passes.
