If you are taking the ACT at NLRHS tomorrow, please check the table below to determine your classroom destination. Remember, you must bring a valid photo ID and be in the lobby of Tower D 2nd Floor by 8AM in order to be admitted to the exam. For those of you who are skeptical about your ability to use a name range, here is an example: Let's say the test taker's last name is Sand. Sand starts with the letter "S." I can see, from the chart, that "S" last names are split between D222 and D307. To determine which classroom the test taker is in, I need to go to the next letter in the tester's last name. For "SAnd" that is "S-A." Because "A" comes before "H" (the second letter of the last name that is supposed to go to D222), I know that Sand should go to room D222. I hope this helps! Have a restful night, eat breakfast, and we will see you bright and early (NO LATER than 8AM) in the morning!

All students are welcome to this Saturday’s State Championship football game at War Memorial Stadium. The game starts at noon. The stadium security team and North Little Rock High School administrators will be enforcing a strict mask-wearing and social distancing mandate. While at the game, all fans must keep their masks on, sit in bleacher rows that are vacant before and behind them, as well as maintain six feet of distance between students seated in rows. This is a mandatory requirement from the Arkansas Activity Association and will be enforced. We look forward to seeing all of you as we celebrate the achievements of our band, cheer, dance, and football teams.
