🐟 Marine Biology students from NMHS went on their first work-based learning field trip today as part of the newly launched Natural Resource Management CTE Pathway. They visited Minter Creek Hatchery where they learned to spawn salmon, examine the incubation trays, learned about the wire coded tags, intakes and fish raceways. Essentially, they were introduced to the complete process of working at a hatchery! Thank you, Ms. Landers, for sharing this information so we can see the opportunities our students are benefitting from as part of the CTE offerings in our district.
For more information on the CTE programs available, please contact Alexia Hadfield, CTE Director or visit our website at https://www.northmasonschools.org/o/nmhs/page/career-technical-education
Students and their families learned important details associated with having a successful high school career at the Freshman Orientation Night held yesterday in the Commons. Career counselor Deb Swaser explained the 'ins and outs' of all things high school, including credit checks, classes and graduation requirements. The well-attended evening provided a wealth of knowledge for students and their families.
Thank you to our high school counseling team for hosting this valuable session, and Assistant Principal Hackett for sharing this information. And, a BIG thank you to all who attended. Participation = Student Success!

🥧 It was a fun-filled Friday at the NMHS student assembly celebrating all things Bulldogs. Not as much fun for the teachers getting a pie in the face! The teachers came up short in the staff vs. student competitions at 'Rise Above Day' on the first day of school, where students heard expectations about the district's four pillars: Responsible, Respectful, Safe and Kind. Rise Above Day also included a review of the student handbook and learning all about HOW to be a BULLDOG. Thank you, Principal Collins, for sharing this fun end to the week at NMHS!
It's time for a little Friday Night Lights! The theme is Blackout NIght. Wear all black!
