Parents whose income falls within specified guidelines set by the U.S. Department of Agriculture should apply for free or reduced-price meals for their students.
You may be eligible for fees to be reduced or waived for other programs at your school or in the district. Completing the fee waiver form will allow your child's free and reduced status to be shared with those administering extra-curricular activities at your child's school or within the district.

You can pay by cash or check at the school cafeteria. Checks should be made out to Northshore School District and indicate "school meals" in the memo line. You can also manage your student's meal account safely and securely online with LINQConnect.
Can Students Park on Campus?
Parking on campus is a privilege, not a right. In order to park on campus, students must obtain a parking pass, register their vehicle and agree to abide by the Parking Expectations. They are then assigned a specific parking spot in the North (Student) Parking Lot and must park in that spot using the vehicle that they registered.
Who can get a Parking Permit?
All eligible drivers with proof of insurance can purchase a pass. Drivers must show proof of insurance and a current driver's license in order to receive a parking pass.
Getting a Parking Pass
On Monday August 31, students who have registered and paid for a parking pass may come to campus to choose their spot (only if the fee has been paid and the vehicle has been registered). To avoid crowding, students have been assigned to one of four groups. Students may NOT come earlier than their assigned time:
Purple 8:00 AM - 9:00 AM
Silver 9:00 AM - 10:00 AM
Green 10:00 AM - 11:00 AM
White 11:00 AM - 12:00 PM
Students must check their school email (STUDENTNUMBER@apps.nsd.org) to find out to which group they have been assigned. Again, students must not come any earlier than their assigned time.
Attendance Line (voicemail): 425.408.8810
Attendance email: NCHSAttendance@nsd.org
Bus passes will be available in mid-October. Parent note, parent phone call, or email is required for your student to ride a friend's bus. We ask that requests to ride a different bus be made by 12:00 Noon.
Main Office: 425-408-8800

Did you know the NCHS / Skyview Food Pantry provides necessary groceries to dozens of families monthly? Many of our families rely on this extremely private and respectful food delivery. If you can, please consider donating to this worthy effort.
If your student is ill and needs to go home, they must visit the nurse/Health Room to be signed out (with parent permission).
Students will not be released when they call a parent to request them to release their student from school.
Please do not call the attendance line to release your ill student. Your student must sign out through the nurse in the health room. This information will then be shared with our attendance secretary at the end of each day. If you have any questions, please contact NCHS nurses Lily Webb or Lynn Collar at 425-408-8806.
Students will need basic items such as a backpack, pens, pencils, notebooks, and paper. Teachers may make requests for specific items once classes are underway. Some classes may require a fee for consumable materials such as workbooks (foreign language), art materials, and extra PE clothing.
