Narragansett Regional High School

Principal’s Flyer #4: September 7, 2025

Dear Students & Families:

We hope everyone has navigated the weekend thunderstorms and weather and you’re feeling fully back in school and fall mode!  Thanks to all students and families for returning BOY forms and taking care of handbook signatures promptly this year.  We appreciate it!  And thank you to all families for getting students to school on time and attending each day.  Reducing student absences and chronic absenteeism has been an area of focus and growth for us over the last two years.  We’ve made strides in this area, and appreciate your support!   Finally, last call on Warriors Gear (for the moment) from our online store.  The store will close on September 8th.

Student / Family Handbook.  Thank you for reviewing and acknowledging receipt of the student / family handbook at your earliest convenience.   Also, if you have not yet returned the forms below, please do so this week!

1. Social-Media Restriction Opt-Out Form (All Students)

2. Military Recruiting Op-Out Form (Juniors and Seniors only)

3. Senior Privilege Form (Seniors Only)

4. Caring for Kids Preventative Dental Programs (All Students)

At the start of our year, we wanted to highlight special resources available to our military connected families and their students.  NRHS is deeply appreciative of our veterans/active duty service members and their families.  As just a very small gesture and thank you for your service, we have organized resources and contacts to help you engage with our school and community.  If you are new to NRHS or just need a refresher on resources available to you, please consider visiting our Military-Connected Families page for resources and liaisons who can provide you with any additional assistance you might need.  Our goal is to help ensure you/your student has an outstanding year. 

*Please note this page will direct you to external resources.  We will work to update it and keep it current as partner-contact information changes over the course of the year. 

School Pictures for all students will be held this Tuesday, September 9th and Senior families are advised that senior portrait date signups are ongoing.

• Update to Senior Families (Class of 2026), due to high demand, we have added an additional Senior Portrait Date for those looking to purchase Senior Portrait packages.

• The date of 9/18 is now available if you are still looking to purchase a package

• Note to families for the Yearbook ONLY photo option, that date will be assigned over the next couple weeks.  That date still is not live yet, so if you are waiting on it, students you have not missed it (We will notify you directly)!

• Heywood’s Newsletter for September

• Please see Heywood Healthcare’s School Based Services Monthly Newsletter, here!

• Reminder for Student Drivers - Have your Parking Pass By Wednesday!

  • Don’t forget to read this important information about getting a parking pass. 

  • All students parking on campus should have a parking pass as of Wednesday this week. Students if you have not picked up your parking pass, do so early this week to avoid issues parking on campus. 

  • Students who do not yet have a car/license but hope to get a parking pass later this year: you will have an opportunity to do so.

• High School Advisory Council.  NRHS is looking for several parents/families and/or community members to join our monthly (virtual) school council meetings.  These meetings help shape the direction of NRHS, and provide student, staff, and community feedback to administration regarding important decisions that impact both the short and long-term planning that we do here at the high school.  If you’re interested to join, please contact us at (cyoung@nrsd.org).  

  • Meetings are traditionally held on Tuesday evenings monthly @ 6:00 PM to accommodate families’ busy schedules.  

Have a great week ahead, Warriors!
