Attention NCHS Families!!


At North Caroline High School, being a Community School means supporting the whole child and the entire family. We believe every student deserves to be warm, comfortable, and ready to learn throughout the winter season. If your family could benefit from a winter coat, hat, gloves, scarf, or other cold-weather essentials, please complete our confidential interest form below. https://forms.gle/e6VperkAqetHb79L7

The information you provide will help us better understand the needs within our school community and connect families with available resources. While completing the form does not guarantee assistance, it plays an important role in helping us identify needs, secure support, and plan resources for our Bulldog families.

If there is sufficient interest and need identified through this form, North Caroline High School will organize a community coat drive to collect donations and help ensure students and families have access to warm winter clothing.

Attention Bulldogs!

Our hearts are heavy as we honor the memory of a man who gave so much to our school community. His impact on our students, staff, and Bulldog family will not be forgotten. As we celebrate Homecoming, we invite you to join us in remembering and honoring his legacy.

A special thank you to Ms. Sullivan for bringing this tribute together. We are grateful for your dedication and hard work.

Once a Bulldog, always a Bulldog. 🐾💙
