NEASC Survey
Over the next three years, North Quincy High School will complete the NEASC accreditation process. We are currently in the process of writing a self-reflection based on five standards. As part of this process, we must survey our parents/guardians, students, and staff. The link below is a link to the parent/guardian survey. We hope all parents/guardians can complete this survey as it provides invaluable information for our school and how we can improve. This survey will be open for the remainder of this week. Thank you in advance. Please use the link below to learn more details about the NEASC process.
Homework Club
Every Wednesday, from 2:30-3:30, we are offering Homework Club. Homework Club meets in room 219 and students do not need to sign up in advance. Ms. Daversa is running this club and will be providing lessons on study skills, time management and much more. Feel free to encourage your child to stop by.
Student Support Updates
On Friday, December 1, 2023, Student Support opened the Senior Class of 2024 Local Scholarship Application Google form. By filling out this short form/survey, senior students will be considered for all the local scholarships voted on by the NQHS Scholarship Committee. This form takes 5-10 minutes to complete, making each student eligible for over 75 local scholarships! This form must be filled in and completed by March 1, 2024. Students must be signed into their Google account to access this and fill it out. https://forms.gle/yLZrZ4vH3QCNvjMC9
Student Support has begun its weekly (Wednesday) emails to students and parents/guardians, including an updated list of available scholarships for seniors to apply for if eligible. Be on the lookout for an email entitled “Updated Weekly Scholarship List”.
Students and families who need one-on-one assistance with the FAFSA (and CSS profile) can make an appointment with Mr. Wong, a volunteer specialist who can assist with completing these forms. Mr. Wong is here every Thursday from 10 am until 2:30 pm - students can sign up for upcoming sessions on a clipboard in the Student Support Office.
