Student Drop Off & Pick Up
We want all of our students, staff and families to be safe while on our campus. For this reason, we ask that student drop off and pick up take place in the Student Parking lot along the sidewalk nearest the school. Students should not be dropped off or picked up in the staff parking lot due to the number of people walking through this area. In addition, and there is not a safe way to drop students off on a sidewalk in this area.
We appreciate your help with this as we work to keep our students and staff safe.

GEMS Oversight Committee Applications
Gwinnett County Public Schools is inviting parents and guardians, community members, and school district employees to apply for the GEMS Oversight Committee, a group of community and school system representatives charged with the annual review of the Academic Knowledge and Skills (AKS) curriculum standards. The next meeting is tentatively scheduled for Nov. 1, 2022. After the review, the committee recommends revisions and additions to the Superintendent for adoption by the Gwinnett County Board of Education. Committee members serve three-year terms. Those interested in serving should complete the online application no later than Aug. 12th. -
Curriculum Night Information
We enjoyed seeing many parents on campus for our extended Meet Your Teacher event this year. Our hope is that the extra hours allowed you to spend more time with your student’s teachers.
Once again this year we are hosting a virtual Curriculum Night event. Rather than having parents arriving on campus at a specific time on a particular date and walking to each of your student's classrooms, teachers will be recording short videos to share information about their courses that you can watch from home. We anticipate this information will be emailed to parents on Friday, August 26.
We are hopeful this will give you the information you desire about your student’s classes with the flexibility that is possible with recorded videos. (You can watch them whenever your schedule allows.) In addition, if you have multiple children at NHS, you will be able to learn about each class for each student, which is not possible at a traditional Curriculum Night model.
We are hopeful this updated format will be helpful to you. If you have questions for our teachers before or after our virtual/recorded Curriculum Night event, please reach out to them directly. You will probably find that email is the best way to reach our staff. Many parents find using the links in the Parent Portal to send emails the quickest way to contact teachers.
