To foster a strong sense of belonging, each freshman class participates in an orientation program prior to entering high school.  Students participate in team building activities with an upper class mentor to facilitate and understanding of how to become successful students and gain comfort in their new environment.  Students are also grouped into advisories that meet once a week and they stay with that group of classmates and teacher/mentor throughout their four years at NPHS.  Class spirit is reinforced through advisory and various activities throughout the year, such as, powder puff, clash of the classes, class spirit day, homecoming and prom.  Lasting friendships are also forged in extracurricular activities, such as performing arts, ROTC, athletics, and club activities.
