2022 - 2023 Course Selection

NCHS teachers will be making course recommendations for next year just prior to the upcoming February break. Students in grades 9, 10 and 11 will then have access through the school portal to make preliminary selections. 

During a Connections meeting, students will review the steps for choosing their schedule and a tutorial will be forwarded as a refresher. Counselors will meet with each of their students through March to review their selections and answer questions.
