Principal Updates
Hello, Norte Vista students and families!
I hope this message finds you in good health and spirits, and, of course, being Brave!
Please be aware we are in the middle of assessment season and have numerous state and local assessments that must still be administered to various groups of students. Each assessment is important, as these assessments are an opportunity to gauge how your student is progressing academically. Please, encourage your students to do their best on each test, as well as encourage them to attend every day, on time. Students doing their absolute best will be eligible to receive incentives/rewards for doing so.
Next, as always, I will continue to emphasize what I expect from every student attending Norte Vista High School. I need a commitment from every student to embrace our "10 Things That Require Zero Talent", as well as our Novi Values (Respect, Integrity, and Determination). These characteristics are industry "soft skills", as well as the foundation of the "Best High School in the World"! Please see our schoolwide banners below, which are also posted in every classroom on campus, and our hallways.
Finally, thank you for your continued support of the Norte Vista High School cell phone policy, food delivery policy, dress code policy, and new tardy policy. These policies and other site or district policies help maintain high expectations and the safest learning environment possible, free of disruptions and distractions. We thank you for your cooperation and support in addressing these policies, and ensuring academic achievement remains a top priority not just on campus, but throughout our entire community!
As always, thank you for your continued support of "The Best High School in the World."
