The committee found Level 3 strengths in the areas of qualified personnel and support staff (4.1), instructional time and material resources<br />
(4.2), and the maintenance of a safe environment (4.3). Additional strengths were also noted in media and technology resources and<br />
infrastructure (4.4 & 4.5) as well as in the area of counseling support (4.7). School leaders determine the number of personnel needed and<br />
have flexibility in the assignment of personnel but final staffing decisions are made by the superintendent and approved by the Board of<br />
Education (A). NOHS has an average class size of 26.27 which is lower than the maximum allowable class size (B&C). NOHS also has<br />
several locally funded positions beyond what the state of Georgia partially funds (D). School leaders protect instructional time in policy and<br />
