Thank a Principal this October:
Dear Members of the Naples School Community:
Study after study has shown that talented teachers are the most important factor when it comes to increasing student achievement. However, the research also says that having high quality principals working in schools comes in a close second when considering what dramatically improves outcomes for kids.
This October, I invite you to join the Naples Central School District, the National Association of Secondary School Principals, the National Association of Elementary School Principals, and the American Federation of School Administrators as we honor building-level leaders across the country. October is National Principals Month, and we are blessed to have Kris Saucke (Elementary School Principal), E. Bridget Ashton ...

Naples Educators Announced as “Master Teachers”:
On October 2, 2018, the Naples Central School District received a call from Governor Cuomo’s office announcing that Mr. Jon Betrus (High School Science) and Mr. Adam Robison (High School Mathematics) had been selected as New York State Master Teachers.
The Master Teacher Program was created to strengthen STEM education in the United States, and it has helped establish a network of teachers across New York who are committed to the success of all students. When asked to comment about the selection, Superintendent Matt Frahm said, “one would be hard pressed to find two educators who are more dedicated to their craft than Jon and Adam.” He went on to say, “both individuals are willing to do whatever it takes to help students find what they are passionate about, and ...

New Faces in Naples!:
Dear Naples School Community:
There is a saying that "the quality of an education system cannot exceed the quality of its teachers." For generations, Naples has been blessed with a world-class faculty and staff, and that tradition continues as we welcome a new group of dynamic educators to NCS.
As we prepare for the start of the 2018-2019 school year, I wanted to introduce many of the new faces you will see in our buildings by passing along information through our website and social media accounts. We are thrilled that Ms. Hanna Fox will be joining our school family, and I would invite you to help us welcome her to Naples this fall.
Hope to see you soon.

Newest “Graduate of Distinction”:
Dear NCS Family:
Four years ago, the Naples Central School District established a “Graduates of Distinction” program in order to honor the outstanding accomplishments of NCS graduates. This year, we are pleased to announce that Jedd Habersto (Class of 2010) will be inducted as the newest member of the group.
However, because Jedd now resides in Silicon Valley where he works on Apple’s international team of software and hardware engineers, he could not make it home for the induction. Instead, Jedd has recorded a short acceptance video that we will be sharing with current and future NCS students.
If you have a few spare minutes, I would invite you to watch the video (click HERE ) that Jedd put together. Jedd has a unique story, and his words remind us that ...

Resources Regarding “13 Reasons Why”:
NCS Parents and Guardians:
A year ago, I wrote to you after the series “13 Reasons Why” was released by Netflix. Because many believed that the show sensationalized mature subject matter involving suicide and depression, mental health professionals across the country expressed concern about the impact the content could have on impressionable children and adults.
Because the second season of the series airs this Friday (May 18), I wanted to pass along the following resources you might consider using if you choose to start a dialogue with your son or daughter about the show:
