Honor Roll Achievement
Two-thirds of NDCL’s 717 students achieved honor-roll status based upon their first-semester grades, according to a report shared with the school community by assistant Principal Denice Teeples.
“We are proud not only of our students’ achievement but also of the effort, determination, and goal-oriented focus that made their achievement possible,” Mrs. Teeples said.
A breakdown of the data reveals that 25 percent of students earned First Honors (4.00 GPA and above), 30 percent earned Second Honors (3.50-3.99 GPA), and 12 percent earned a place on the Merit Roll (3.25-3.49 GPA). A more detailed analysis by grade level appears in the charts prepared by Mrs. Teeples.
All honor-roll students received certificates signed by Principal Joseph A. Waler to mark their achievement.
“My index finger still has an indentation in it from signing nearly 500 honor certificates,” Mr. Waler quipped.

Junior Alex Nevison serves as team leader, with juniors Nathan Galante and Alex Simerale driving the robot. Junior Nic Ramsey created custom autonomous routines on-the-fly to help the Lions secure a first-seed alliance position.
NDCL also won the Gracious Professionalism Award for exemplifying professionalism and cooperation during the competition. NDCL advances to the state qualifier in the first week of February.
NDCL Awarded $1,000 Grant
