When school lets out June 22, some students will head off to work while others pack their swimsuits and flip flops and retreat to the beach. The just short ten weeks of summer can be spent in a multitude ways: at home hanging with friends, involved in a college preparation class, honing language skills abroad, whipping out a paint brush in community service, or working for minimum wage as a Waveny Camp Counselor.

Dr. Bryan Luizzi, Principal’s Tony Pavia’s successor, visited NCHS on Friday, April 8, and was given by a tour by Mr. Pavia and Superintendent of Schools Dr. David Abbey.
“It’s a big change [for the school] – it’s a new principal,” Dr. Luizzi said. “Anytime you move into a new school community there’s a little anxiety around getting to know everybody, but it’s something I enjoy. My favorite part of the day is when I get to move around the building and talk to students and people.”
