Last week the Yearbook Staff visited the Garden State Scholastic Press Association conference and brought home two prestigious awards for the 2026 edition of Daedalus -- a Silver Award for the whole publication and an Excellence in Academic Coverage award for Destiny Ashford and the section titled "Branching Out Beyond Borders." Earlier this fall, the Yearbook crew hosted a major workshop, "Storytelling By Design" with a nationally-recognized branding expert, Mike Smith from the Univ of Nebraska. Over 300 students from schools all over New Jersey attended. Special thanks to our advisor Rebecca Rouantree, Eleni Apostolakis, and our Jostens rep Bonnie Blackman for putting together an amazing program!
NBTHS is excited to share a few highlights from last week’s School Violence Awareness Week! Through the collaborative efforts of the School Climate and Safety Team, we coordinated two engaging events to promote peace, creativity, and positive school connections.
A PEACE of ART Contest: Students in Ms. Lachow’s art classes submitted creative pieces celebrating peace. Their artwork is currently on display in the MRC for everyone to enjoy.
CHALK the WALK: This fun-filled event brought together students to spread positive messages and brighten our school community through art and creativity.
Thank you to everyone who participated and helped make these events a success! Together, we continue to build a safer, more positive, and connected school community.

NBTHS hosted a regional PATH training for the AVID Program (Advancement Via Individual Determination). Hundreds of educators throughout the tri-state area attended the training which focused on how we can continue to advance this program in their districts to provide students with the supports needed to become college, career, and future ready. We look forward to continuing to advance AVID for NBT students!
