NEW SCHOOL CALENDAR READY FOR PARENTS

 The School District of Collier County’s 2010/2011 School Calendar is posted online for parents to view.  To view it, go to the home page of the school district Web site – www.collierschools.com.   There is a link right there on the page. The calendar, completed by a district calendar committee, now bears the stamp of approval of the School Board.

Some calendar dates for families to note:

• The 2010/2011 school year begins for students on August 23, 2010
• The school year ends for students on June 9, 2011
• Winter Break runs from December 20-31, 2010
• Spring Break runs from March 21-25, 2011

There is a new two-page format for the school calendar this year.  The second page provides a narrative to be used with the first page – the actual calendar.  The narrative includes an overview, breaks down student days, shows days when school is not in session for teachers and students, lists staff development days – which are days off for students, and gives dates for Interims, Report Cards, and all Early Dismissal Days.

VOLUNTEERS…
From Kim Kelley, parent volunteer coordinator:

CCPS has upgraded its fast pass system.  What this means to us is that all existing approved NHS volunteers need to be fast passed again.  Unfortunately, you will have to go into school with your ID and have your picture re-taken by Susan Zenz at the main desk in Building 1 of Naples High. If you are coming into school specifically to be fast passed, Susan recommends that you call her first to make sure she is available (377-2200). All volunteers will then receive a PVC card with a bar code.  Once you receive the card, you can simply swipe your card in front of the infrared scanner and it will automatically record the time you spent in school volunteering.  Keep in mind that there will be times when you do not have access to the scanner so you will still have to manually keep track of those hours.   If you have questions about your volunteer application status or the fast pass system, please call Susan @ 377-2200 or 377-2278.   If you are involved with a group or organization who volunteer regularly such as band parents, football moms, ABC, etc., please pass this information on to them.  Ideally, what is needed is one person to represent the group to make sure all volunteers are approved and fast passed and to keep an accurate record of volunteer hours.  NHS prides itself on its volunteers and wants to make sure that the school is recognized for the volunteer hours worked each school year.  If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me at 263-7679.   Kim Kelley

OWN A PIECE OF GOLDEN EAGLE HISTORY

The “original” Naples High School gymnasium opened its doors (along with the rest of the new high school) in the fall of 1960. Forty nine years later, in the summer of 2009, a new state-of-the art gymnasium replaced the original one, and the “old” gym was demolished and now is gone forever.  Although that “old” gym is gone, many of the memories that were made there (basketball, volleyball, wrestling, high school dances and even graduations…) will last a lifetime.

The Eagles’ All-Sports Booster Club is now offering everyone a limited time opportunity to  recapture a tangible piece of those memories… in the form of an engraved wooden plank from the original Naples High School gymnasium floor. Each 12” X 2” plank of wood is engraved like the picture below:

If you would like to purchase one or more of these pieces of Naples High School history, you can do so one of two ways. They will be available for sale at all home varsity football games this fall, and they will be on sale while supplies last, in the Naples High School athletic office, located in Building One at NHS.

The cost is $20.00 each. Proceeds from this fundraiser will benefit ALL sports at Naples High School. If you have qestions or if you would like to place your order via e-mail, please contact Trish Hendry (athletic department assistant) at HendryPa@collier.k12.fl.us.
