Free! Online SAT Course
The SAT Reasoning Test is the most widely used and most rigorously researched college admissions test in history. Virtually every college in the United States accepts the SAT as a measure of the critical thinking skills students need for academic success in college. Dorchester County Public Schools provides this free online course through your high school.

NDHS is going through an accreditation process called Accreditation for Growth (AFG) by the Middle States Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Secondary Schools. Parents and community members are an important part of this accreditation process. Your input will help us as we strive to provide the best education possible for our students. Please take the time to complete the survey. Your feedback is important to us!
To the NDHS 2008 Graduates:
I would like to express my sincere congratulations to the Class of 2008. Earning a High School Diploma is indeed one of life's major achievements. Most assuredly, the glory of this moment is the culmination of sacrifice, struggle, and personal conflict. I would like to encourage you to draw positive conclusions from this journey and to extract affirming, constructive suppositions to serve as worthy companions as you embark on your next expedition.

Principal's Letters to Parents of NDHS Seniors and The Graduating Class of 2008
Dear Parents:
Congratulations on another great year and a final year for seniors. Our seniors have taken their finals and have successfully completed their end of the year obligations with the exception of those taking the High School Assessments.
As an early graduation gift, today, May 20th 2008 is the official last day for seniors! Seniors are still responsible for fulfilling any and all obligations. Please see Mrs. Brohawn, financial secretary with any concerns.

In preparation for next year, we have set up our attendance calling system. We are doing a test of this system during these last days of school to be assured it is ready for the 2008-2009 school year. Please make sure that we have an up-to-date home phone number for your student. Calls are now being made each day when your child is absent from first period. This is an attempt to assure the safety of our students. Thank you very much for your assistance in making sure that we have accurate, up-to-date records.
The local Denny's restaurant on Woods Road and Rt. 50 in Cambridge would like to acknowledge and reward all the academic accomplishments of the school year soon concluding by giving away free ice cream! Any student, accompanied by an adult, who presents a report card with all B's or above at the restaurant by June 30 will receive free ice cream. No purchase is necessary, but the offer does not apply to take out orders.
