A plan will be established prior to the scanning to ensure randomness. A report of the scanning process will be documented and submitted to the Principal. Emergency Drills Regular emergency preparedness drills will be held throughout the school year so that students will be trained to act properly in an emergency.

Lockers (Grades 6-8) Each student will be assigned a locker for his/her individual use at NSS. This locker is for storing books, coats, and personal items necessary for school. Students should not bring valuable items from home. NSS will not be liable for personal items you leave in your locker or bring to school with you.
