Northeast Early College
Greetings NEC Families,
As we finish up another great week at NEC, I just want to remind you about upcoming PSAT testing! Testing will be October 8 for 10th and 11th graders and October 9 for 9th graders. Students, please make sure you are well-rested and on time to school. We will have burritos for breakfast both days! Please also make sure you have your charged Chromebook and your charger. We're excited to see you test your best!
With Gratitude,
Jennifer Warren
Principal
