Norcross High School Foundation for Excellence Gala

Enjoy an evening of fun with live music, food, and drinks with your friends and neighbors as we raise money to support our teachers and students at Norcross High School.

This year's NHS Foundation for Excellence Hall of Fame Honorees include:

  • Paula Parris is a retired NHS foreign language teacher who was innovative in her teaching methods. A very petite woman, Paula perfectly exemplifies the saying "dynamite comes in small packages."
  • Ann Schintzius is a former NHS Math teacher, athletic coach and class sponsor who received the Teacher of the Year Award and perpetually earned the respect of her students and colleagues.
  • Harvey Snider is the father of several NHS graduates and served, among other duties, as an officer of multiple booster clubs.  Harvey is The Voice of NHS Basketball.

The goal of the Foundation is to fill the gap between federal, state and county funding, and the extra needs of the school. The mission of this 501c3 Corporation is to partner with Norcross High and the Norcross community in continual support of NHS as a world class school.  The Corporation is organized to help develop and strengthen the academic, artistic, and athletic capabilities of the students of Norcross High.
