Dear Huskie Students and Parents,

With this letter, I begin my eighth year as principal of NNHS by welcoming the Class of 2026 to the Huskie family and inviting everyone to make the most of the 2022-23 school year!  I’d also like to share with you why I am so pleased to be a part of this incredible school!  Naperville North High School is considered to be among the finest schools in the nation.  We are routinely recognized for educational excellence.  Such recognition doesn’t occur by chance.  It is the result of three things:  motivated students, caring parents/guardians, and the dedicated faculty and staff members.   Rarely does a community come together in such a focused and passionate manner to ensure all students participate in a collectively robust and rich experience.  

Students, the faculty and staff at Naperville North High School are very excited to support you in accomplishing all your academic goals.  Always remember that you are in charge of your learning.  We have amazing teachers at Naperville North High School who will provide you with everything you need to grow socially and academically.  We need your commitment to your education to ensure that you produce nothing short of excellence.  The routines and study habits you put in place this school year will dictate your success.  I charge each of you to put systems in place at home and in school to guide you as you strive for growth and  excellence. 

While I publicly proclaim the classroom teacher’s role in the successful education of our children, I also know that parents, volunteers, coaches, support staff, teaching assistants, custodians, food service workers, and bus drivers also play a vitally important role in creating a school environment that is safe, clean, and conducive to learning.  At Naperville North, we all contribute directly to the successful and joyous experiences of our students. 

This year, as a school community, we will again be placing a focus on social emotional learning for students and providing support in mastering essential standards in every content area.  We encourage parents to participate in our fourth year of parent engagement speakers as we plan to cover interesting and diverse subjects throughout the school year.

Thank you for entrusting your students to NNHS,

Stephanie Posey
Principal, Naperville North High School
