Principal's Message

Hello Wolfpack!

The start of a new school year marks a time of fresh beginnings, renewed friendships, and exciting opportunities for growth. As we prepare for the year ahead, we would like to share some important information and sentiments with you.

As we begin this year, we invite you to partner with us in creating a positive and supportive learning community. Your involvement – whether through the family advisory committee, attending school events, or engaging in conversations with your children about their school experiences – makes a profound difference in their education. And your student’s involvement through activities, clubs or athletics will help them make the most of this school year.

Thank you for entrusting us with the privilege of educating and caring for your student. We look forward to a year filled with learning, growth, and shared accomplishments. Together, we will create moments that inspire and memories that last a lifetime.

Wishing you and your family a successful school year ahead!

The strength of the wolf is in the pack.

Tami McCracken

Important Information

Secure Single Point of Entry

Secure Single Point of Entry: North Central HS is committed to the safety of our students. From 7:30 - 8:00 am, students will enter the building through the Howard Street doors near the student office. After 8:00am, students will enter through the Maxwell Street entrance. The video above describes how this process will work.

Immunizations & Health Care Plan

In order for your student to be able to start the school year off without disruption, NCHS needs an updated health care plan and immunization chart. NCHS has sent messages to families that need to take care of these plans. Please check to ensure that you are up to date.

Dance Expectations

Our first dance of the year will be the Homecoming Dance on Friday, October 6, from 8pm-11pm. In order to be eligible to attend dances, an NCHS Dance Expectations form is required to purchase a ticket. Attendance, grades, and discipline are all taken into consideration. This year we are including student fines. When students go to the Business Office to purchase a ticket, these items will be taken into consideration.

Schedule Change Requests

The counselors are back in the building and have hit the ground running! Schedule change requests for existing students can be emailed to the counselor by Wednesday August 23rd for consideration. The counselors will do their best but cannot accommodate all requests. Please only send change requests that are a glaring issue in your schedule such as a missing course, or you have a course you have already taken in your schedule. New registration will start Thursday August 24th at 8:00am and run through the start of the school year. We look forward to seeing you back on Tuesday September 5th!

High School Busing

Rider's Liscenses (13-18 years old) can be obtained by calling customer service at (509)328-7433, going to the Plaza, or applying online.
Passes SPS high school students received last year are still active.
Student ID 9from any school). If the youth does not yet have a Riders Liscense or joint SPS card, they can show the driver their current school ID and ride.
A student who does not have a passor student ID is welcome to board the bus by telling the operator they are youth who qualify for zero-fare.
