NCHS School Counseling Program

Proud to announce that North Callaway has three students in the Junior Leadership Class of 2025! They (Sophie Geppert, Lia Bondurant and Isabelle Borcherding) make us Thunderbird proud.

🍎SERVE's Back-To-School program is back for it's 14th year! All Callaway county kids deserve to have access to the tools that they need for successful learning, regardless of their family's income status. Every year we fill backpacks with the basic school supplies needed to start each student's year off right!

✏️If you need to sign up for school supplies for your children, sign up will be open on our website June15-July 15. We will share a link once sign up is open!

✨We will be launching an online wish list campaign to help us obtain all of the supplies needed for the year. We expect a roughly 10% increase in need this year, leaving us to fill approximately 750 backpacks for kids between kindergarten and senior year. If you are able to donate, please keep an eye out for more information!

Yesterday we celebrated the Class of 2024 with Decision Day at NCHS. Each student has chosen their path whether it be the workforce, military, trade school, a two-year/ four year college or university. The sky is the limit for each one of these seniors. I would like to Thank all the NC staff that adopted a senior, the Army National Guard, Sgt Dupont for providing Pizza, the Auxvasse Christian and Presbyterian Churches for desserts for our Seniors. I want to thank RootEd/Kennedy Tipton for all of her support and the NCHS Counseling Team for always helping out and NC Administration for being so supportive of this position of College and Career Advisor. I think the Seniors enjoyed celebrating their classmates and enjoyed some much deserved down time. All seniors got an NC alum tshirt, Go Po Popcorn, adopt a senior gift cards and some won raffle items as well.
