INTRODUCTION Dear Student/Parent: On behalf of the faculty, staff and administration, I want to welcome you to Northwestern High school. At Northwestern we continually strive to improve academics, arts, athletics, and our extracurricular programs. We hope that each of our students will take advantage of the many educational opportunities offered. At Northwestern we believe that excellence is developed through hard work, self discipline, and a demonstration of humility that comes from an understanding that no one achieves without the help of others along the way. This handbook is intended to provide answers to most of the questions commonly asked about activities, regulations, and the operation of the school. All school practices, rules, and regulations have been established to promote a safe and orderly environment, which is conducive to student learning. Students and parents should familiarize themselves with this handbook. Students and parents should seek advice or help from a teacher or administrator whenever they encounter a situation not covered in this handbook. Northwestern High School wants to prepare students to be successful in a global economy that is becoming increasingly more competitive. Our staff is dedicated to helping our students to transition smoothly from high school to becoming productive, skilled employees, who are able to continue lifelong learning. With that in mind we require our students to be on time, dress appropriately, and apply themselves in the classroom. The citizens of Rock Hill have invested heavily in some of the finest educational facilities available anywhere in the country. At NHS, students, parents, faculty, staff, and administrators are partners in the educational experience. We hope that each of our students and parents will become an active participant in the process. If we can be of service to you, please contact us at 981-1200. Parents and students are reminded that verification forms are located in the front of this handbook. Signing the forms verifies the receipt of a student handbook, the receipt of the school’s Internet access policy, and an awareness of student responsibilities for participation in extracurricular activities and athletics. The forms should be returned to the student’s first block teacher by the end of the first week of school. Sincerely, James Blake, II Principal 9
