This upcoming week there will be no school tomorrow, January 20th as we observe Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Day. In addition, there will be no school Tuesday and Wednesday, January 21st-22nd for teacher workdays. Students will return to school on Thursday, January 23rd to start the 2nd semester.
On Friday, January 24th, Term 2 Report Cards will be sent home with students as well as "At Risk Letters" for students who currently do not meet our NCPS promotion standards.

Bus Information
Nash County Public Schools (NCPS) school buses are now equipped with GPS technology that may benefit your household. The WheresTheBusTM parent app lets you know precisely when your child’s bus will arrive at your bus stop. This app is free to all NCPS bus-riding households. The system also helps Transportation efficiently manage our bus fleet.
To use the WheresTheBusTM app, download the WheresTheBusTM app from the App Store (iOS / Apple) or Google Play Store (Android). You will be prompted to create an account. Select Nash County Public Schools from the dropdown menu and provide your student’s information. Once your student’s information is verified, you will create an account and will be able to log in and access the app.
Additional information on the WheresTheBusTM parent app is available on https://www.ncpschools.net/page/wheresthebus. We encourage you to try this exciting new technology, as we continually strive to provide you with the best possible transportation service.
Please direct all bus questions and concerns to Assistant Principal Mr. Ward (dlward@ncpschools.net).
Parent Portal Information:
NCPS has switched student information systems over the summer. We are no longer using PowerSchool or Parent Portal; instead, we've transitioned to the new NCSIS, powered by Infinite Campus.
So, what does this mean for you? You will receive an email from Infinite Campus to set up your account. Parents and Guardians, please look for an email titled "NCPS Campus Parent User Account Activation." This email will contain a unique link that provides the activation code for each student.
What if I did not receive an email?
You can reach out to our data manager for support.
Will we still use Rooms? Absolutely! Rooms will continue to be used for communication between your child’s teacher and you, the guardian.
Will we still use the NCPS App? Yes! The NCPS App is on a different platform and is not changing.
The only difference is that PowerSchool Parent Portal is now Infinite Campus. What you were familiar with as Parent Portal is now called Campus Parent and Campus Student.
Campus Parent and Campus Student, the Infinite Campus web portals and mobile apps, provide parents, guardians, and students with real-time access to grades, attendance, assignments, and schedules.
