One
of our goals at NHS is to ensure that each graduating senior has a
plan for life after high school. Students have numerous options available
to them, including military service, entry into the work force, college
study, and numerous 'gap year' opportunities. Students are encouraged
to discuss and develop their plans with their guidance counselors
to find the best fit.
We
are happy to be able to use this website as an opportunity to present
the following information regarding post high school options, including
the mysteries of the college process, to our students and parents.
Many useful articles written by outside sources are available under
their respective categories. However, a complete
list of all of these articles is also available.
Please
be sure to check our bulletin board regularly
for current events and other news.
