4th Quarter Final Update

NGC Families and Students,


As the school year comes to a close, I hope you will join me in celebrating all of your students' accomplishments this year; including the completion of their first year of high school! The Class of 2026 has so much to be proud of, and I am looking forward to seeing them build on their successes next year as Sophomores.


It's hard to believe, but this will be our last newsletter of the school year. As the students transition from the Ninth Grade Community, I wanted to provide some important dates and information for the 2023-2024 school year! Furthermore, the Class of 2026 will transition to a new Assistant Principal and School Counselor who are listed below:


Mrs. Kauffman will be their grade level (10th Grade) Assistant Principal. She can be reached at kauffman_k@milfordschools.org


On the 10-12 side of the building, counselors are assigned students by sections of the alphabet:





  • Mrs. Liz Emmons (emmons_e@milfordschools.org) works with all 9 -12 grade students, and handles all college/career readiness as well as testing.
