or a staff member comes to school and presents COVID-19
symptoms. Parents will be contacted to pick ill students up
immediately.
ALL CDC Guidelines will be followed for the health and
safety of students and teachers. These guidelines can be found

around campus.

Dress Code
NDHS takes pride in the appearance of its students.
Good grooming equates to good conduct and academic
achievement. ALL students are expected to dress and
groom themselves neatly in clothes that are suitable for
school activities in accordance with the NDHS Dress
Code. Infractions will be referred to an administrator.
Please see the dress code policy in the student handbook
or on the school’s webpage.

Bus transportation is a privilege, not a right. The bus driver oversees
students and has the authority to issue discipline referrals and will
report any infractions to the administration for disciplinary action.
Students will ride their assigned bus. Student requests to ride another
bus will NOT be honored. Continued school bus misconduct will result
in the suspension of the student from riding the bus for the remainder
of the year.
Bus Routes will be available on the website, during Open House, or by
calling the office. 407.870.9949Breakfast & Lunch
Breakfast and lunch are provided to ALL students at NDHS.
If the student does NOT want to take advantage of the school lunch
services, he/she will be responsible for bringing their own lunch at the
beginning of the day.
We will not allow family or friends to bring breakfast or lunch for
the students during class or lunch time.
Exceptions will be made ONLY in case of an emergency. In that case,
lunch will be received by the person at the gate and we will have the
student pick it up during lunch time.
Students will not be allowed to order food for delivery.
