Students taking art classes are set to celebrate their annual Nutley High School Art Show on May 21 from 6:00 to 8:00 p.m. in the auxiliary gym, where students from grades 9 through 12 will showcase a range of unique pieces.

Administrators and teachers are taking steps to address concerns over student disengagement by getting stricter with its cell phone policy. Principal Dennis Williams shared that the school administration, in efforts with the central office and the superintendent, is working to strengthen language around cell phone use. The academic committee of the Board of Education is also involved in this discussion.

In an exciting new development for the students and staff, Ashleigh Norton has been given the position as a temporary guidance counselor, filling in for Victoria Lewis who is currently on maternity leave. Norton has been a guidance counselor for young people for ten years, although this is her first time working in a school. Before joining Nutley High, she worked at Plaid House, a group home that provides residential and supportive services to students with psychiatric and emotional needs.
