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.
