Don’t forget Red Devils!!
Red Devil Families, we would like to share a few reminders and updates for the upcoming week.
Peer tutoring will continue this week from our National Honor Society. Tutoring will be offered every Monday until 3:30pm in Ms. Bandy's room. All subjects are offered for tutoring. Please take advantage of this opportunity if your student is in need of help academically.
Students and parents, please be aware that Friday, October 21st is a Teacher Workday. There will be NO SCHOOL for students on this day. This will end the 1st Nine Weeks of this semester. Parents, please look at your child's PowerSchool progress and discuss with them the importance of staying on top of their coursework for the semester. Report cards will be distributed on Friday, October 28th.
Looking ahead for Sophomore students and parents, the PreACT will be given on Tuesday, October 25th. All sophomores will be participating in this National test on that day. Likewise, our Junior students will be participating in a practice ACT (CCRA) on October 25th. This will help prepare them for the state administration of the ACT in the Spring. Please make sure your student is present for these testing opportunities.
Parents and students, please remember that school begins each day at 7:40am. Student tardies are beginning to accumulate for 1st period, as well as throughout the school day. Students have 5 minutes between each class to move through the building and be in their next period class. Repeated tardies will result in disciplinary action, as well as parking privileges being revoked. Parents please remember the drop off and pick up pattern for our Red Devils. Please do NOT turn left into or out of the car rider lot. Be sure to pull all the way up to the three orange cones to drop off and pick up your student. This allows our line to flow more smoothly and keeps the line from backing up. Do not drop off or pick up students on the side of road or down the line as this holds up the line from moving. Thank you for helping us keep our Red Devils safe.
Parents and students, please remember our dress code. Students are NOT allowed to wear midriff or cut off shirts. This includes being worn under unbuttoned shirts or unzipped coats. Shorts must be an appropriate length, as well as hats and hoods are not allowed in classrooms. Nor is outside food and drink. Examples of each, as well as this information, can be found in the Student Handbook your student should have brought home. This is also posted on our school website. Disciplinary action will begin and student will be asked to call home for clothes.
We hope you have a great evening, and as always, Go Red Devils!

Parents, please see the message from Catawba County Public Health:
We hope your student is off to a healthy start of the 2022-23 school year. We encourage you to help keep our schools a healthy place for students to learn. There are a few key ways we can do this together:
Students who are sick should stay home, no matter what illness they have. Do not send your child to school if he or she is sick, has a fever, nausea/vomiting or other symptoms of illness. At a minimum, all students who are sick should remain home until they have been fever free for 24 hours without use of
medications such as Acetaminophen (Tylenol) or Ibuprofen (Motrin). Please consult with your child’s School Nurse for specific guidance.
If your student has symptoms of COVID-19, please have them tested, either through your child’s medical provider, at another test site, or with an at-home test. If your student tests positive for COVID-19, please keep them home and notify your child’s teacher or School Nurse of their positive test.
We are at a much different place in the pandemic today than we were just a few months ago, with convenient access to free at-home tests, vaccines available for children, teens and adults, and masks, which are all part of a layered approach to COVID-19 safety. If you have questions about what actions you should take to protect your child, contact your child’s healthcare provider or School Nurse.
We are looking forward to this school year and working with you to ensure our school is a safe, healthy place for all students.
Red Devil Families, thank you for a great first week of school. We would like to share a few reminders and updates for the remainder of the week.
Beginning tomorrow, NCHS will run on a normal class schedule. All students will need to report to their 1st period class at the 7:30am bell. The tardy bell will ring at 7:40am and tardies will be counted this week.
Any senior student who did not have their picture made this Summer will have one last opportunity tomorrow. Students will be called beginning at 8:00am. Please come prepared in the morning if you are a student in need of your senior picture.
Parents a reminder that free lunch has NOT been continued for this school year. Students will be required to pay for their lunch each day. Meals are not allowed to be charged in the cafeteria.

Friendly reminder: There will be NO SCHOOL on Monday, September 5th as we celebrate Labor Day.
Familias de Red Devil, gracias por los excelentes primeros tres días de clases. Nos gustaría compartir algunos recordatorios y actualizaciones para el resto de la semana.
Padres y estudiantes, recuerden nuestro código de vestimenta. A los estudiantes no se les permite usar camisas cortadas o cortadas en el abdomen y los pantalones cortos deben tener una longitud adecuada. No se permiten sombreros ni capuchas en las aulas, así como tampoco comida y bebida en el exterior. Se pueden encontrar ejemplos de cada uno, así como esta información, en el Manual del estudiante que su estudiante debería haber llevado a casa. Esto también se publica en el sitio web de nuestra escuela.
Padres, un recordatorio de que NO se ha continuado con el almuerzo gratis este año escolar. Se requerirá que los estudiantes paguen por su almuerzo cada día. No se permite cargar comidas en la cafetería. Si necesita completar un formulario de almuerzo gratis o reducido, consulte el sitio web de nuestro distrito o consulte a nuestros trabajadores de nutrición infantil en el comedor.
Padres, por favor recuerden el patrón de dejar y recoger a nuestros Red Devils. NO gire a la izquierda para entrar o salir del estacionamiento para pasajeros. Asegúrese de llegar hasta los tres conos naranjas para dejar y recoger a su estudiante. Esto permite que nuestra línea fluya más suavemente y evita que la línea retroceda. No deje ni recoja a los estudiantes al costado de la carretera o al final de la línea, ya que esto evita que la línea se mueva. Gracias por ayudarnos a mantener seguros a nuestros Diablos Rojos.
Continuaremos reuniéndonos en Homeroom por el resto de la semana. Cualquier estudiante que NO haya recibido su tecnología deberá pagar la tarifa asociada para poder recibir la tecnología para este año escolar. Por favor, ocúpese de esto lo antes posible para que nuestros Red Devils puedan comenzar a trabajar para sus clases.
De cara al futuro, recuerde que NO HABRÁ CLASES el lunes 5 de septiembre mientras celebramos el feriado del Día del Trabajo. Esperamos terminar esta primera semana de clases. Esperamos que tengan una gran noche y Go Red Devils.

Please take care of this as soon as possible so our Red Devils can begin work for their classes.
Looking ahead, please remember there will be NO SCHOOL on Monday, September 5th as we celebrate the Labor Day holiday. We look forward to finishing out this first week of school. We hope you have a great evening, and Go Red Devils.
