The NMHS Counselors hosted the annual Dual Enrollment Parent Info Night on January 25, 2024.
Couldn't make it? Check out the presentation and related materials on our Dual Enrollment page! Earlier this month, North Murray High School hosted Bagley 8th graders for the 8th Grade Expo! To lay groundwork for this, NMHS Counselors visited Bagley to explain High School 101 (graduation requirements, how electives are part of that balanced graduation plan, GPA, Honors/Dual Enrollment opportunities, and tips for making the most of high school). And then for the 8th Grade Expo itself, 8th graders visited NMHS to see the elective classes in action. Once back at Bagley, a team from NMHS worked with 8th grade homerooms to help 8th graders select their elective courses for next school year.
In case you missed it, we highly encourage you to check out our Rising 9th Grade Info page. It has graduation requirements info, elective selection directions to follow along from home, the official Honors Application, a video walkthrough of our elective pathways, and much more! The NMHS school counselors conducted Title I Senior Info Night for the Class of 2024 and their parents on October 30, 2023. Whether you missed it, or you made it and need a refresher, the Senior Info page has video loaded of the slideshow and the presentation audio. You can also view/download the slideshow, review the presentation handouts, and see other important resources for seniors and their parents. Check it out!
Check out Scholarships.com! The counselors have checked over this scholarship search tool and added it to the group listed on the last section of our Financial Aid page. Scholarships.com boasts 3 million scholarship listings, and while that might sound overwhelming, when you set up an account it will sift through those listings for you based on your profile information. Start your account so you can start sifting, sorting, saving, and applying to scholarships today!

Check out our Rising 9th Grade Info page for course selection directions, the menu of intro electives, the Honors application, and more. The DEADLINE for current 8th/rising 9th grade course selections and Honors applications is Monday, December 19. Happy Georgia Apply to College Month!
To celebrate this--
To start this activity off, seniors are completing a required BRIDGE Law activity of declaring their general plan for after high school (e.g., unsure, 4-year college, 2-year college, technical college, military, workforce). Then, they will have the rest of class time to work on a college application, with assistance from NMHS counselors and local college admissions reps--regardless of what higher ed option they apply to! To see what we are up to, visit our 12th Grade BRIDGE Law Activity page. For more information on what your senior should be doing for college/career planning, check out the Senior Info Night resources on our Senior Info page. Special thanks to our local partner colleges, Dalton State College and Georgia Northwestern Technical College, for pitching in! |
