NCHS finally opened its doors to students on Tuesday, September 6, after an extended week of summer due to Hurricane Irene. We had been busy assembling the news section in preparation for September long before August 31, the original NCPS start date in 2011. Not discouraged by the storm, the faculty and students had high spirits about meeting their teachers, adjusting to their schedule and getting back into the routine of waking up at 6:30 every morning. September has provided much material for our section.

Ten years ago tomorrow, America was attacked by nineteen al-Qaeda terrorists on a beautiful September morning. The tenth anniversary of 9/11 serves as a reminder of how our nation has bound together in times of tragedy and the day that forever changed history. To pay tribute to the victims of September 11, several seniors have organized their own projects.

Due to Hurricane Irene complications and school cancellations, the senior picnic, originally scheduled to take place on Monday, August 30th was delayed until the following day. The Student Coalition sold senior t-shirts for $5 in front of NCHS at 11 am. In accordance to tradition, members of the class of 2012 gathered later in the high school parking lot to paint car windows. Assistant Principal Ari Rothman attended the event while NCPD officials were busy assisting the town-wide clean up.
