NDB Awards Celebration
 In consulting with our Department
Chairs about the best time to host our Awards Celebration, it was determined
that a weeknight is probably best since many families and students have other
obligations on the weekend. The date for our Awards Celebration will be Wednesday, May
19, 2010 at 7:00 p.m. in the Moore
Pavilion. The Academic Awards
Celebration will honor students in grades 9 - 12 as was done in the
past. We look forward to this
event as a special time to recognize and acknowledge the study ethic, hard
work, and steadfast perseverance of our students. |
