Good evening, families,
It's hard to believe, but this week marks the end of the NEHS journey for our seniors. Friday is their last day, and Saturday brings graduation! Please see below for updates and information regarding our various ceremonies and activities, and continue to be on the lookout for any additional communications via email, our website, and social media. Congratulations in advance to all of our graduates and their families!
For our 9th-11th grade students, there are only ten days left in this school year. If there are questions or concerns regarding classes, please be reaching out to teachers, a counselor, case manager, or your grade-level administrator. We are here to help students in finishing strong at the end of the school year. For those interested, please also consider the many summer program options available to students this summer!
Take care!
GO HIGHLANDERS!

Students will be engaged in these activities during periods 1-3. Thanks to our 9th grade team for organizing this event!
Please work with your student to ensure all library books are found and returned to our library. Notices will soon be going out to students and families. If students are still using materials they may remain checked out. However, students should return all books from previous trimesters and anything no longer being used this trimester.

Below is a recap of the dates and times seniors and their families/guests need to be aware of in preparation for our graduation ceremony.
NEHS Graduation for the Class of 2024
All graduates who plan to walk in the graduation ceremony must attend a rehearsal event the morning of June 8th, at 9:00 am. Graduates will meet in the NEHS main gym to begin rehearsal, no need for regalia at that time. Graduates should plan on reporting back to the NEHS gym to prepare for the ceremony at 1:00 pm that afternoon, with their caps and gowns.
Graduates will walk across the stage to receive their diploma covers (diplomas are mailed after grades are finalized) and have the opportunity for a professional photo which will be available for purchase from LifeTouch Photography.
The ability to understand, read, write, and speak multiple languages opens many doors and provides countless opportunities for our students so that they can shine, be respected for their diversity, and become successful in a labor market that is increasingly competitive and globalized. The State of Oregon, along with 38 other states, has established the Seal of Biliteracy to recognize high school graduates who have attained a working level of proficiency in reading, writing, listening, and speaking in one or more World Languages in addition to English. The Seal of Biliteracy is awarded by the Superintendent of Public Instruction for the State of Oregon. We are honored to recognize the following students for this accomplishment.
Seal of Biliteracy Recipients - Spanish | Seal of Biliteracy Recipients - Spanish | Seal of Biliteracy Candidates - Spanish |
