How Our School Communicates
Posted: July 19, 2018
Communication is imperative to the success of our school community. Our community consists of our students, parents/guardians, school employees, and outside community members and partners. We communicate on a regular basis using a North notice. The North notice is the official communication method that our high school utilizes and will always appear in a certain format. It will arrive to the e-mail address that you have registered with us in our student information system. Our high school will also deploy automated phone calls to the phone numbers that you have registered with us in our student information system. Our high school builds a strong connection with our school community and we strive to communicate in an effective, efficient, and timely manner.
