NRM Early College High School

Happy 56th Birthday to Nash Community College! Early College HS appreciates all you do for our scholars.

Eagle Families: Check out the News Section on our website! You will find the Eagle Eye Newsletter for September as well as two presentations that assist you with Parent Portal and Rooms on the NCPS app. Don't forget tonight from 5:30 PM to 7:00 PM is our first AVID Family Night for this school year. We hope you can join us.

Eagle Families, I have been notified by transportation that a driver has not been secured for Bus 214 for tomorrow's route. Again, for those scholars who ride Bus 214 and cannot attend due to the lack of transportation, their absence will be "Excused," but they are still responsible for making up any missed work. Teachers will make assignments available to them via Canvas. Scholars taking college courses will need to communicate with their professors for missed work. We will work through the College Success Coach, Mr. Foster, to notify NCC professors about the absences due to bus transportation. Thank you for your patience. Principal McGeachy

Eagle Families, This is Principal McGeachy with a few announcements. I hope everyone is enjoying the wonderful weather during this Labor Day Weekend.

Eagle Families, This is Principal McGeachy with a few announcements as we head into week 3 of the 2023-24 school year. First, continue to remind your scholars to check their school email accounts for important information from our school counselor and teachers. If your scholar is enrolled in college courses, it is equally important for them to check their college email accounts. Secondly, a reminder that parents picking up scholars at dismissal should continue to park while waiting for their scholar rather than forming a car line. Thirdly, a huge "thank you" to the members of the Academic Booster Club for providing breakfast to our staff last Friday. Your thoughtfulness is greatly appreciated. Lastly, please check our website for other updates related to our school and your scholar. Thank you for your continued support and enjoy the rest of your evening.

Good Morning, Eagle Families! A reminder that today is an early dismissal day, and scholars will be dismissed at 1:00 PM. Parents picking up scholars from the D. Building parking lot are asked to park while waiting rather than forming a car line. This will increase safety in the area. Thank you and have a wonderful day!

All schedule changes have been made. Please check your final schedule to make sure: * You do not have classes you have already taken *You are not in a class twice *You do not have a schedule conflict Please Note: I can not change schedules after today!!!!!! Please email me ASAP if you have concerns about your schedule.
