PALMETTO CIVICS PROJECT AN INITIATIVE OF THE SC DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION
Families are invited to participate in Summer SC 250 activities as South Carolina prepares to commemorate the 250th anniversary of the American Revolution and our state’s important role in our nation’s history. These summer activities provide meaningful opportunities for students and families to learn, explore, and connect with local and state history. Take part and help celebrate South Carolina’s rich history, heritage, and contributions to our country.

The Palmetto Civics Project is a resource-rich initiative designed to foster students’ understanding of and respect for the institutions that sustain our civic life. Our goal is simple but profound: every South Carolina graduate will leave school prepared to embrace the privileges and the responsibilities of American citizenship.

Please visit SC Palmetto Civics Project to learn more.

Valedictorian Kennedy Ryan Rodgers spoke of the lifelong bond she and her fellow North Augusta High School graduates now share—an honor that unites the Yellow Jackets’ Class of 2026 with generations of alumni. Congratulations to this exceptional class of seniors. They leave bonded by the Friday Night Lights, the historic hurricane that reshaped their hometown, the unforgettable memory of their principal riding the BOD squad table at their first pep rally, and all the other moments that helped shape who they are today and who they will become. Congratulations, Class of 2026! #ACPSDcelebrates #ACPSD2026Grads #ACPSDGraduation

As President of our Students Against Destructive Decisions (S.A.D.D.) Chapter, Ellen VonAlmen has coordinated many firsts for our chapter this year with advisor, Mrs. Merion, and SC Community Engagement Specialist, Faith Burton. In February, Ellen applied to become a part of S.A.D.D.'s National Student Leadership Council (NSLC). Through an intense application and interview process, Ellen earned another first with a spot on the NSLC representing our State, District, and NAHS. She will be one of twenty-four students from across the nation that will coordinate peer programming on youth health and safety. As part of the NSLC, Ellen will attend their Summit "Back to '81" in Cleveland, Ohio to learn more about leadership in S.A.D.D. and mobility safety.

Wednesday, we celebrated our final Thrive Hive session of the school year! It was a wonderful time as parents, students, tutors, and volunteers came together to reflect on the impact this program has made throughout the year.

NAHS is incredibly grateful for the continued support of the North Augusta Chamber Foundation and our dedicated SRMC engineer volunteers who invested their time and energy into supporting our students each week. Thank you to our parents for celebrating alongside us, and a huge shoutout to our students for their commitment, growth, and engagement throughout the program.

We look forward to continuing to support students in their academic journeys, and we’re excited for the Thrive Hive tutoring program to return in August 2026!

Round 2 of graduation practice is DONE! Today, the students learned how to process to the stage, made sure their names were pronounced correctly, and how the diplomas would be distributed! Our Junior Marshalls were on hand to lead the group to their correct seats, and Ms. Adcock, Media Specialist, made sure the music played on queue! Our last and final round is tomorrow morning! #nahsyellowjackets

A huge shout out to Jacket Golf Team and Coach Spears who battled to finish in 4th place in the State Tournament. After starting the day in 5th place and 12 shots behind the host team, our Jackets rallied and closed that gap to take the spot after a scorecard playoff. To top things off, Junior Luke Johnson finished 6th as an individual, making the All-State Team. WAY TO GO JACKETS! #nahsyellowjackets
