Dear #proud2Bnhpgcp Families, Faculty, and Staff,
We hope this message finds you well during these challenging times. We understand that recent events in the Middle East may have had a profound impact on members of our community, especially our students and their families. We assure you that we are here to support you through these difficult moments.
At NHPGCP, we recognize the importance of addressing the emotional and psychological well-being of our students. We understand that these events can evoke a range of emotions, such as anxiety, fear, confusion, and sadness. It is essential to provide a safe space for individuals to express their feelings and receive the support they may need.
Our counseling staff is prepared to support our students, family members, or colleagues who have been directly impacted by the events or are having difficulty processing the situation. Please do not hesitate to reach out to your child’s teacher, a member of the counseling staff, or a building administrator should there be specific questions or concerns. You can also reach us at family@nhp-gcp.org .
As parents, you may need some assistance in navigating the difficult conversations that may arise from your elementary age child(ren) seeing images or hearing conversation about these recent events. If you feel you need guidance in steering some of this dialogue, here is a resource you can reference: https://www.nctsn.org/sites/default/files/resources/tip-sheet/tips_for_parents_on_media_coverage_shooting.pdf
Thank you for being a valued member of our community, and please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or need assistance.
Sincerely,
Dr. Morrison-Raptis
The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) plans to conduct a nationwide test of the Emergency Alert System (EAS) and Wireless Emergency Alerts (WEA) at 2:20 PM on October 4, 2023. As this test will take place during the instructional day, it is important for all families to be aware that staff cell phones will receive the alert. Student cell phones likely will pick up the alert, too.
There is no option to opt out of the test.
Please follow the link below for more information.

Dear #proud2Bnhpgcp Families,
It has come to my attention that the ParentVue parent portal app is not working properly. In order to prepare for the 2023-2024 school year, students were promoted to the next grade level. This rolling over to the new year has resulted in the app experiencing several issues. Parents have reported they cannot log in to the app, and/or parents have been able to view the name of a classroom teacher on the ParentVue app.
Please be aware that any teacher assignment in ParentVue is not necessarily the correct placement for your child. All placements for the 2023-2024 school year will be posted at the end of August. Your child’s principal will notify you when class placements have been finalized and posted to ParentVue.
We are working with Synergy to fix the mobile app and hope to have it working as soon as possible. In the meantime, you can still log in to the ParentVue parent portal online.
We apologize for any confusion or inconvenience.
