NCHS HOLDS CLERGYMAN BRUNCH FOR LOCAL PASTORS

On October 21, 2013, Nash Central High School held a “Clergymen Brunch” for local pastors and preachers throughout the school district. Eighteen clergymen and women attended and shared their ideas about what the community can do to educate the “whole child.” These stakeholders are truly excited to help NRMPS and make sure our students are successful in life. Many of them talked about tutoring sessions that their churches offer, and others discussed ways they would like to integrate their mentoring programs into the schools. Through the round table discussion, it was apparent that the spiritual leaders understand some of the challenges that students, staff and other stakeholders are facing in the public schools today. Nash Central High School officials said they were pleased to hear that they are committed and very supportive of meeting once a month to come up with a strategic plan for helping NCHS students become globally competitive.
