Principal's Message


Hello Wolfpack!


As you likely are aware, our school building is on the list of 2024 bond projects that will be decided by voters on February 13, 2024. Our communications team has put together a series of videos that outline each project, including North Central. I encourage you to watch below.

We are always grateful for the time Civic Theatre takes with our students and all the professional feedback they receive.

NC – WU Crystallography Internship



A unique opportunity has crystallized from the partnership forming between North Central High School and Whitworth University. The National Science Foundation is supporting a project in which Dr Kraig Wheeler and Dr Diana Schepens are evaluating molecular topology of crystalline solids. In short, by studying the structure and particle interactions, predictions can be made regarding chemical applications.

 

Are you preparing a college resume? Are you struggling to find an educationally relevant summer job? Two internship opportunities will be available for this summer. These are paid positions with a 4-week duration. Candidates should complete an application, including a resume, teacher nomination, hand-written essay, school transcript. Applications will be available in-person from Mr. Mohn (N233) or Mr. Britton (N225).

 

The internships will support the research of Wheeler and Schepens within their respective areas of the project. Together, the research looks to discover improvements to materials by analysis of particle interactions. Crystals offer a unique data set providing consistency within nature. Akin to skeletal images when getting imaging, x-rays scatter on samples to give a clear image of atomic structure.
