NEW CENTURY TECHNOLOGY HIGH SCHOOL

______Sheila Roby, Principal – Veronica Haley, Assistant Principal (256) 428-7800 or (256) 428-7801 Fax To the parents of NCTHS Class of 2016: Congratulations! Your son or daughter is now a senior at NCTHS and should be graduating on Friday, May 27, 2016 at 1:30 P.M. at the VBC! That’s the good news! The bad news…graduation activities are unfortunately not free. Each senior is required to pay $100. This free covers the cost of cap and gown, tassels and NCTHS stoles, which graduates get to keep, the diploma cover and mini diploma, as well as the cost of graduation programs, flowers, music, and honorariums for special guests. This required fee is due no later than December 4, 2015. Checks should be made out to NCTHS. Payments may be made in installments if necessary and if prior arrangements are made. Students should bring checks or money to either the senior sponsor, Mrs. Savage-Owens, or Mrs. Torre Hanvey, the NCTHS secretary. Students will be given receipts for money paid. Please send checks or money in a sealed envelope with the student’s name printed on the outside. While no other fees are required for graduation other than the system-wide required $100 fee delineated above, students will have the opportunity to purchase prom tickets, year books, senior picnic tickets, senior T-shirts, and graduation DVDs on a per-item basis. These items are not required and are in addition to the required fees. Class rings, announcements, name cards, pictures, extra tassels, memory books and other trappings of one’s high school senior year are not included in the senior fees and must be purchased separately. Jostens representatives visit the school during the year to sell many of the above items, but many choose to purchase them through other outlets. Students must submit a name certification notice (the green sheet). It is the official notice of how they wish their name to be spelled on the diploma. It must be signed by the parent or guardian. Please complete the name certificate notice and return it immediately to Mrs. Savage-Owens, as we need it prepare the list of name of graduates for printing of diplomas. Please discuss with your student the importance of keeping you informed of information passed along in senior meetings. Check the NCTHS website for updates. Mrs. Savage-Owens has a web page and an Edmodo group with pertinent information and downloadable copies of all correspondence sent home. Please feel free to visit the school or check with Mrs. Savage-Owens if you have any questions. You can reach her at [email protected]. Thank you for sending your child to NCTHS!
