HS SENIORS ARE COLLEGE BOUND
North Shore Seniors Celebrate National Decision Day
On Friday May 31, 2024, North Shore High School seniors celebrated National Decision Day by donning an article of clothing from the college or university that they will be attending next school year! We are all so proud of everyone in the Class of 2024. They endured an unprecedented college admissions season and received some wonderful results. North Shore students were accepted to some of the most prestigious colleges, universities, technical schools, and music conservatories in the country. This year, college decisions were a little later due to delayed FAFSA announcements. Additionally, our Vikings will also be joining the work force, entering the military, and/or taking a gap year to continue discovering their dreams.

In 2023, 99.5% of our seniors graduated from North Shore High School (the highest rated high school graduation rate in Nassau County). 94% of the graduating class attended a college or university (87% went to a 4-year college while 7% attended a 2-year college), and 6% went into the military or took a vocational/gap year.

Below are just some of the colleges and universities that our North Shore Vikings have been accepted to this year and will be attending:
