High School Daily Announcements 

for 

Wednesday, January 31st 


Come join Fellowship of Christian Athletes tonight, Jan. 31st at 8:00 p.m. in the Dawg Pound for games, snacks and great conversation about motivation and goal setting.  Whether you are a team athlete or love to put in miles or weights by yourself, FCA has a place for you!





Students!  Do you like competition? Do you like to share your skills with others who have the same interests? Do you like to show off what you know? Mid Plains Inter-High Day is the event for YOU! Inter High Day is a fun filled day where high schools get together to test and showcase their skills and knowledge of the different academic, artistic, and technical/trade topics. You will also have a chance to earn scholarships and awards! These competitions are open to ALL grade levels, so it is a fun opportunity for YOU to learn more about the skills YOU love. The event is all day February 22nd at MPCC.   If you are interested, find Mrs. Quiroz in the Counseling Office to learn more by February 5th!



On February 8th, we will be hosting the first of the two spring parent-teacher conference events at North Platte High School. We hope you come up to the school to discuss your child’s education with their teachers.

Our counseling team has organized some additional information and presentations for the evening. Our goal is to create an evening that will inform parents and students about current courses and help plan for the future. The event will begin at 4:30 pm and wrap up at 8:00 pm sharp.


Counselor events for sophomore and junior families:

  • Sophomore Steps to College: Come learn what steps sophomores can be taking now to help them prepare for college as they prepare for their junior and senior years. Sessions will be 30 minutes long and start at 5:30 pm and 7:00 pm. 

  • Junior Steps to College: Come learn what next steps juniors should be taking to make their senior year purposeful and successful as they plan for life after high school. Sessions will be 30 minutes long and start at 4:30 pm and 6:00 pm. 

In addition, our counselors are available to answer any questions you may have regarding signing up your student to take the ACT test. They have resources to share with you in their office area on the second floor. 


The last spring date for parent teacher conferences is April 18th from 4:30 to 8:00 p.m. 




Reminder:  Dual Credit representatives will be in the Counselor's Office Conference Room every Monday for the rest of the year from 8:00am - Noon.  Be sure to see them if you have any questions about your Dual Credit classes.   In addition to dual credit help, MPCC representatives can help you with general college advising such as seeing if your dual credit college credits transfer to in-state and out of state colleges, seeing if a college offers a program you are interested in, and more.
