Subject: CTE Seniors– ACT WorkKeys Assessment
Dear Seniors and Families of CTE Seniors,
It is the expectation of North Lincoln High School that all CTE seniors participate in the ACT WorkKeys assessment. This assessment provides valuable information about career readiness skills and is an important part of our school’s commitment to preparing students for success after graduation.
The ACT WorkKeys assessment will take place on Tuesday, November 4th, from 8:00 AM to 11:00 AM. Individual room assignments will be emailed directly to students prior to the test date.
Students participating in the assessment will be excused from the classes they miss during this time. However, it is the student’s responsibility to reach out to their teachers in advance to make arrangements for any missed assignments or classwork.
If you have any questions, please contact Mr. Volk at adam.volk@lincoln.k12.nc.us.
Thank you for your cooperation and commitment to your academic and career readiness.
Sincerely,
Adam Volk
Assistant Principal
North Lincoln High School

Important Transportation Update for NLHS
Beginning on Monday, September 15th and continuing for the remainder of the year, we are combining bus 93 and bus 296 morning routes. Students who ride bus 93 will be picked up 10-15 minutes earlier than usual and students who rode bus 296 in the morning will be picked up 5-10 minutes later than usual by bus 93. This is for the morning route only. Students who rode bus 296 in the morning and afternoon will continue to ride bus 296 in the afternoon.
Bus 97 and Bus 89 will have new bus drivers who will be learning their new routes in addition to several sub bus drivers who will be driving this week. It is advised that students are to be out and standing at their stops at least 10 minutes earlier than their normal time so that drivers don't accidently miss them. Please be patient as our drivers adjust to their new routes.
Please reach out to Mr. Volk if you have any questions.
Transportation Notice: Starting tomorrow (Tuesday, 9/9), Bus 287 will be temporarily replaced by Bus 114. Please be on the look out for this bus change in the morning and in the afternoon. Thank you!
