In late October 2021, several students from NC found out that they will transfer to Kell High School in Marietta, Georgia. This transfer of students helps bus drivers arrive at the school faster, decreasing the number of late bus passes they receive. Most students do not like the idea of transferring schools because they became familiar with NC.

Shop With a Warrior gives students an opportunity to foster the holiday spirit and buy gifts for children in need. While some groups shopped for kids who could not attend the event, students still took time out of their day to buy items for the children. “My group had a special needs kid and it was so sweet seeing him light up at the toys he liked. I love being able to give back to the community and help those in need. I think this event teaches NC students a lot,” senior Kevin Pereira said.

With fast-moving lines, the guests enjoyed a good time Saturday in Downtown Acworth at the yearly Halloween JamBOOree festival. “It was my first time going to JamBOOree; I had a great time! My niece loved it, and she really liked how the lines moved fast so she was able to choose what she got for face painting. Everyone was very nice, and it all ran really smoothly. It was fun and I liked that it was next to the park so when the lines were a bit long she could go play there,” NC senior Tavis Pace said.
