The donation will provide two business students with a scholarship for the 2022- 2023 academic year. Club members raise funds by participating in various events on campus and selling chocolate covered strawberries on Valentine’s Day. This is one of only a few student-led scholarships at NTCC.

Principal’s Corner
I know that I have been absent these last two weeks. To say that it has been busy is an understatement. The school year is rapidly coming to an end. We have a full schedule of events from our Senior Awards program, FFA Banquet, Sports Banquet, class trips, and the list goes on. Graduation is almost here for our seniors. May 27th will be here before we know it, and I know that our seniors are excited to walk across the stage and receive their diploma. As our seniors look forward to their future endeavors, we here at the high school are looking forward to next year. We are continuing to implement all of the changes previously discussed in these columns. We are in the process of hiring new staff to fill these new roles that we are going to be offering our students next year. Our high school will have our own CMA/CNA program, we will have our own Culinary Arts department, and we are looking forward to partnering with NTCC so that our students can participate in cosmetology, ITCC, and automotive tech. These are just a few of the updates that are occurring here at Daingerfield High School. As always stay safe and next week we will be back with some more loving, positive, and uplifting information about our school, students, and community. God bless and GO TIGERS!
