Spotlight on Mr. Adam
"Band Man" Justin Adam has been a part of the NHHS staff for four years and wears many hats. In addition to being the leader of our high school band, he is also shared with Turkey Valley to spearhead their band program. This makes for many hours in both district as he continues to grow both programs.
This fall Mr. Adam is busy with Marching Band and has just started the Spirit Jazz Band this week. In addition to also directing our high school band, Mr. Adam can often be seen giving individual and group lessons as well as teaching students new instruments as they work to extend their own musical learning.
NEIC Student Leadership
Student from the NEIC conference have been invited to attend three day long meetings to build capacity in school districts and across conference lines. There are three meetings during the school year, the first being held October 11 at the CWC. The 14 students on NHHS's PBIS team attended this week and began building a plan to advertise the building strengths and address the building struggles they identified.
In addition to work time together, students are exposed to two speakers during each meeting. The goal of each speaker is to highlight leadership in their own lives and help students learn how to become better leaders. Students also spend time building relationships with students from other district and plan for ways to improve the conference sportsmanship and comraderie.
