 On December 10, Delaware's State
Treasurer Velda Jones-Potter visited NHS to
speak to Business
students from several classes. The
students listed as the Treasurer gave a detailed
presentation regarding her education and
background as well as the duties of the State
Treasurer. The students quickly became
engaged when the presentation included a few
rounds of "Who Wants to be a Millionaire"
requiring the audience to answer some intriguing
financial-based questions. Special thanks
to NHS Business teacher
Greg Collins for organizing this informative
event.
Kudos to NHS Teacher, Susan Mitchell,
who was awarded December Classroom of the Month
as part of Newark's PBS (Positive Behavior

was perseverance.
