Every Friday in January
Shadow Days- Friday, 2-2 and 2-9. To participate in a shadow day, call the NBH office (850-248-0201) and let the receptionist know your child wants to shadow another NBH HS student. You may either choose another student that your child knows or we will provide one for you. There is an AM session (8-11:30) and a PM session (11:15-3:00)- you may sign up for either one- not both. If you have any more questions (such as lunch, dress code, etc. the office can answer these questions for you).

Applications will be distributed this week and should be returned to your student's homeroom teacher by Wednesday, February 21, 2018.
Please come join the Student Advisory Council (SAC) and see how your thoughts and ideas can help make Bay Haven better!
