Attention High School Students and Parents,
Student schedules for the 2017-2018 school year are available on the IC portal You may request a schedule change by filling out the appropriate Google Form for each school counselor. The add/drop period will close on September 8th!

3. Already have a credit for class on my schedule
4. Need to discuss a conflict with my school counselor.
Bad reasons to request a change:
1. Don't like the teacher.
2. No friends in that period.
3. Want to duplicate my friends schedule.

FALL COLLEGE VISITS TO NSHS
Every year colleges and university admissions officers visit NSHS. Very often these are the same admissions officers reading our students applications for admission. We highly encourage seniors to meet with these representatives.
In google classroom, seniors and juniors can see these visits in the calendar section under "About". Everyone can see when these visits are here: http://nshs.northsmithfieldschools.com/content/college-visits-nshs-students

1. Sign up only for colleges you will probably apply to or have interest in.
2. Be on time
3. Ask GOOD questions
4. Dress nicely.
