A photo of the NHS Class of 2021 on their first day of freshman orientation four years ago.

“I am so proud of each one of you. Your individual achievements and future aspirations make each of you so unique. What defines a school is not the building itself, but the people within it. The relationships we have built have profoundly impacted me. Your respect, actions, words and accomplishments have made me a better leader. 

I will miss each one of you. Your smiles and hellos as you enter the building every morning and the ‘Have a good day Mrs.Sordi’ as you leave make each day so special.

What feels like the end is often the beginning – go out there and do amazing things.  We are the home of the Chiefs…this will always be your home.”

-Pam Sordi, principal at Nonnewaug High School
