N-CCS: Small System, Big Impact for over 100 years!!
As Newton‑Conover City Schools (N‑CCS) marks more than a century of dedicated service, we celebrate the many strengths of being a smaller district: nimble decision‑making, close-knit relationships, high academic achievement, and truly student‑focused initiatives. What truly sets us apart is our ability to see each teacher, staff member, and learner as a unique individual—not just another statistic. As we pause between school years, join us in revisiting standout moments and stories from past years.
At the 6-2-25 N-CCS Board of Ed Meeting the NCHS Women's Soccer CVAC Conference Champions were recognized.
The N-CCS Central Office team and families participated in the weekly community feeding this past Sunday evening at First Presbyterian Church in Newton. Approximately 130 community members were fed. Even when the school year is over, N-CCS continues to care and to serve.
