Haga clic aquí para leer esta información en español.

This is a final reminder to complete the steps to select a high school for next school year. If you do not make a selection, your child will be placed where there is space available. 

Hello 8th grade Goldbacks! 

It's time for current Grade 8 students to make a selection for high school! The Newburgh Enlarged City School District currently has two High School campus options, Newburgh Free Academy Main Campus and North Campus, with three special programs to apply for if interested. As a reminder, High School Selection Tour information can be found here. Additional information about the schools and their various programs can be found at our NECSD website newburghschools.org. 

School selection will take place utilizing a Parent Portal Survey. If you do not have a Parent Portal account set up, you will need to create one. The Infinite Campus Parent Portal Application can be accessed here: Parent/Student Portal Infinite Campus or downloaded free from the app store. Tutorial videos are available at Parent/Student Portal Infinite Campus | En español select the tab that best fits your needs. Once activated you will have access to the Survey for your child when the survey opens on January 2, 2024. If you currently have an active Parent Portal, you will only need to follow the process below to complete the Survey. If you have difficulty accessing your Parent Portal and/or need a password reset, you may send an email to newburghportal@necsd.net for assistance. 

The Survey for high school selection will only be available January 2, 2024 through February 25, 2024. A selection of NFA Main Campus or NFA North Campus must be made. If your child is interested in PTECH, Marist or NFA West Campus programming, there is a required supplemental application process that must be completed after you've completed your campus selection through the survey. Those applications are due to the respective program administrator no later than March 8, 2023. Supplemental applications can be found here: Marist ECHS | NFA P-TECH  | NFA West

Important: 

• You must choose either NFA Main Campus or NFA North Campus.  
• If you do not make a selection, your child will be put into the general selection process.
• Any required specialized programming for your child, may impact the school assignment (i.e.: IEP, etc.)
