  • Remembering the 2016-2017 School Year NSBHS Mission Statement
    Remembering the 2016-2017 School Year Dear families, As we come to the end of the 2016-2017 school year, I am mindful of how this year started. Our first day of school was for “9th graders only”, and had a full-day of activities to transition the students into the high school. Throughout the year, the Cuda freshmen have joined organizations, played sports, found courses they liked, and overall became a very strong class. I watched them in April at an awards ceremony for 9th graders and marveled at how far they have come in their confidence as young adults. The class of 2020 is already achieving great things. Our seniors are busily preparing for graduation on May 27th by finishing their extra-curricular activities, projects, coursework, and enjoying some school sponsored activities, such as Prom, Grad Bash, and then the Legacy Walk and Senior Breakfast. The class of 2017 has been an amazing class full of incredible scholars, imaginative leaders, and talented athletes. We have had many senior events honoring their May 2017 May achievements, and I can’t wait to see all the scholarships given out on Honors Night. Parents and guardians, during the summer, please note the school will be open Monday-Thursday. Please call the main office for any information you may need or check our website for details on the beginning of the new school year. Congratulations to all our students for a successful year. Have a wonderful summer, Mrs. Chenoweth www.NSBHIGH.com New Smyrna Beach High School High Beach Smyrna New For the parents, staff, students, and community of of community and students, staff, parents, the For VISIT NEW SMYRNA BEACH H.S.
