NDHS Track would like to give a special thank you to the North DeSoto Middle School Track Coaches, Zach Harper and Hannah Kempf. They do an outstanding job with preparing the young athletes to run in high school, but also help us at home meets. The practice schedule and drills they do are very similar to the same as the high school team, so those kids understand the culture of track when they join the high school team. Coach Harper and Coach Kempf are #TheDeSotoDifference.

Reminders for the Week of 3-11
Save the date! Our Academic Expo is coming up!
Schools in the North DeSoto area continue to face the challenge of accommodating the community’s rapidly growing population.
North DeSoto High School gives students chances to grow, learn, and thrive through AP and dual enrollment options, and strong participation in athletics and extracurricular activities. Current spaces are creating limits to the ability to offer classes in important areas like career and technical education with less students being able to experience these hands-on learning activities than would like to.
