Halloween Fun for a Cause

A huge THANK YOU to our amazing students, staff, and families for supporting the NJHS Halloween Costume Fundraiser! Because of your generosity, we raised $650 for Drumm Farm Center for Children.

Your support helps make a difference in the lives of children in our community. We are so proud of our NJHS students for leading this effort and grateful to everyone who participated!

PTSA Reflections

🎨✨ 2026–2027 PTA Reflections Theme Announcement ✨🎨

Every year, the PTA Reflections program inspires students to explore their creativity through a unique, student-created theme. Through dance choreography, film production, literature, music composition, photography, and visual arts, students have the opportunity to express their thoughts, feelings, and personal experiences while discovering more about themselves and the world around them.

🌎 This year's 2026–2027 Reflections theme is:

"What My Culture Means to Me"

Culture is more than traditions—it includes the people, values, customs, languages, celebrations, stories, and experiences that shape who we are. This theme invites students to reflect on what makes their own culture meaningful and share that story through the arts.

We can't wait to see the incredible creativity, perspectives, and voices our students bring to this year's Reflections program. Start brainstorming, creating, and sharing your story!

💙 Accepting entries in:

🎭 Dance Choreography

🎬 Film Production

📚 Literature

🎼 Music Composition

📸 Photography

🎨 Visual Arts

We look forward to celebrating our AMAZING students!

Due Date: November 6, 2026
