Homecoming dance ticket sales are extended through today, Friday at lunch, Tickets are $10. The dance will be on the new South Plaza of Beaver Field from 7:30-10:30 Saturday 9/24.

Miller Nation!  Have you ever wanted an opportunity to put a pie in the face of some of your favorite NHS staff?  Or maybe some of your least favorites?  Well, during Homecoming week you could win a chance to do just that!  Grab any coins or bills you have and put them in the bucket of your "favorite" staff member during lunch.  This is a Coin War, so all coins count towards positive votes for a pie in the face; bills count as negative votes.  The staff member with the most positive
total will get a pie in the face!  All proceeds will go to the NHS PTO.  Go Millers!

Please complete your 2022-2023 State Mandatory Training by October 7th. The assignment is in the NHS Student 2022-2023 course.

Want to go to the dance?  Join an afterschool activity?  Play a sport?  All of these are offered at NHS, but you need to have a Random Drug Testing Form signed by your parents on file to be able to participate in any of these.
With Homecoming Dance coming up soon, you definitely want to make sure your Random Drug Testing Form is on file so you can purchase a ticket for the dance!  It's a form that a parent needs to approve or sign only once and it covers all 4 years here at NHS, so many of you already have it.  Have your parents check your forms through their Parent Portal in PowerSchool.  Have questions?  Ask Student Services.

College Mini Fair is October 4th . Please visit Naviance to sign up for the College Mini Fairs that take place during AL from 2:40 to 3:30.
