NCC encourages students to become involved in one or more of the clubs, organizations, or sports programs offered at school.  Some clubs are of an academic nature; others are service or social justice related.  The majority of NCC students participate in at least one extracurricular activity.  Below is a brief description of each.  The moderator of each group is listed and should be contacted for specific information.  Faculty names and emails are listed on the NCC website under faculty

ACADEMIC TEAM

Academic Team: There are three Academic Teams at NCC: the varsity team,
the junior varsity team and the freshman team. Competition begins in
September and students participate throughout the school year including
tournaments. Ms. Helen Pence is the sponsor of all three teams. Mr. John
Kelly and Mr. Bill Stamm
assist with the Freshmen and JV.

 

DIRT

Discussing Inspiring Readings In Theology is a faith-sharing group made up of NCC students and teacher-moderators.  We exist to pray, engage in thoughtful discussion and dynamic fellowship opportunities, and encourage each other, which are activities we believe will lead us deeper into the Catholic Faith.  This group is led by Mrs. Colleen Swaim.

 

STUDENT GOVERNMENT

Student Government at NCC is lead by Mr. Dave Lloyd. It is the link between
the students and the administration. Student Government's job is to be the voice
of the student body and to lead and promote the school. Student Government
sponsors several dances a year, pep club, spirit days, and pep rallies. The group
also assists with open houses, get acquainted week, big brother/sister program,
summer work projects and more. In the fall, freshman students are given the
opportunity to consider running for homeroom representatives.

 

PEP CLUB

The NCC Pep Club is open to all students. This group promotes school spirit
by encouraging attendance at school-sponsored events. Some of their activities
include selecting theme nights for particular games, organizing caravans,
planning contests, etc. Mr. Dave Lloyd is the moderator for the Pep Club.
 

 

STUDENT AMBASSADOR PROGRAM

The Student Ambassador Program is composed of students who assist the
Development Office with recruitment activities in our grade schools. These
events include 8th grade visits to NCC, NCC visits to district schools to speak
with 5th, 6th & 7th graders and the NCC Open House. Student Ambassadors
are also asked to assist with the Alumni Phoning for Annual Appeal follow-up.
Teachers recommend students who they feel are comfortable speaking in group
settings. Names are passed on to Mrs. Tessy Krebs and Mrs. Mary Ciafardini
in the Development Office. This group is active from September through
February.

 

STUDENT NEWSPAPER

For over twenty years, Ms. Helen Pence has served as the Faculty Advisor to
the school newspaper, The Hilltopper. Writing for the paper is open to all
classes and every student is welcome to join by coming to the monthly
production meetings. What makes our newspaper unique is the ability of our
students to write on a topic that interests them. The focus of this year's
newspaper is to make the student body aware of the world around them and to
let them be heard within the school community. Generally, six newspapers will
be published. Also a tradition here at NCC, the final "Senior Paper" will be
issued in May.

 

STUDENTS FOR LIFE

NCC Students For Life has over 10 years of existence. Mr. Ron Auteri
coordinates the Students For Life Group. Students will be exposed to various
pro-life issues ranging from abortion to euthanasia. It is hoped that they will
develop a deeper respect for human life from the moment of conception to
natural death. We try to achieve this goal through emphasis on prayer,
sacraments, education, and involvement in activities.

 

YEARBOOK

Mr. Mark Patterson oversees the yearbook. Yearbook is open to all students
interested in assisting. The yearbook is created using Photoshop.
 

 

CHOIR/LITURGY GROUP/MUSICIANS

Open to all students who are interested throughout the school year to participate
in school liturgies, etc. Mr. Ron Auteri, Mr. Gary Devoto and Mrs. Therese
Blank
coordinate details for school masses and choir.

 

SPANISH CLUB

Third and fourth year Spanish Course Students have the opportunity to travel to
a Spanish speaking country with other students and teachers. As an example, in
2005 Mrs. Oliverio and Mrs. Kellinghaus took 24 students and 4 parents to
Madrid, Seville, Cordoba, Segovia, Toledo, Granada, Costa de Sol and the
Rock of Gibraltar.

 

NATIONAL HONOR SOCIETY

To be eligible for membership for National Honor Society (NHS), the candidate
must be a member of the sophomore or junior class. Also, they must have been
in attendance at NCC for a least one trimester, and they must meet the
minimum grade point average. Once this criterion has been met, students are
considered candidates to the program. Membership is an honor bestowed upon
a student. Selection is by a majority vote by a faculty committee and is based
on outstanding scholarship, character, leadership and service. For a complete
description of NHS membership requirements please contact Mrs. Joanna
Loechel or Mrs. Shelley Wykle.

 

NCC BLOOD DRIVE COMMITTEE

The Blood Drive committee works in conjunction with Hoxworth Blood Center
to host donor drives three times per year. The events are held in the fall and
spring trimesters. NCC is proud to give back to the community in this
capacity. It has been ranked in the top 5 high schools in Greater
Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky year after year for the large number of donors
recruited for this event. We hope to continue this tradition. Mrs. Shelley
Wykle
is the contact person for the Blood Drive Committee.

 

NCC DRAMA CLUB

The NCC Drama Club gives students an understanding of theatre and allows
them an opportunity to express themselves through fine arts. Performance
opportunities are a wonderful way to assist with self-confidence and self
esteem. Students may choose to be a part of the Drama Club without being on
the school play. There are typically just as many students helping off the stage
as actors on the stage. NCC is dedicated to the total drama experience of
learning, commitment, and theatre. Mr. Kevan Brown is the Drama Club
Faculty Advisor.

 

BOWLING CLUB TEAM

Mrs. Jenny Mertle is the moderator for the NCC Bowling Club Team. Walt's
Center Lanes is the sponsor of the team. The NCC Bowling Club competes
against 8 to 10 other school teams from Northern Kentucky. There is a limit of
10 boys and 10 girls who can be listed on the roster. In October, tryouts are
held for the bowling team and sessions begin in mid November for a 12-weeks
session. Team members are required to pay a membership fee of approximately
$25.

 

CLUB VOLLEYBALL

With the help of Mrs. Angie Reckers and Mr. Scott Froendhoff, Mrs. Mertle organized a volleyball team for NCC boys.  Try-outs will be held in late February or early March and matches begin in April.

 

NCC SCIENCE CLUB

The goal of the Science Club is to make science less intimidating and more fun.  We offer learning opportunities that will go beyond the classroom, and explore careers in science.  Several guest speakers and field trips will be available throughout the year.  In the past we have traveled to Costa Rica and hope to also travel to Belize in the near future to study their unique ecosystems.  Membership is open to all students and the club is moderated by Mr. Bill Stamm.
