New Humble Community School
NHCS Junior High
VISION
While remaining true to the vision of NHCSA, NHCS students will use the lens of agriculture, stewardship and experiential learning to develop the skills, resilience, and values to be accountable and contributing citizens of local and global communities. By providing a nurturing and inclusive learning environment, every student can thrive academically, socially, and emotionally. Junior high at NHCS will inspire curious, creative, and critical thinking students. Through collaboration with families and the community, we endeavour to fulfill NHCSA’s purpose of fostering the growth of each individual student through innovative academics, stewardship and agricultural literacy.
