Principal Dr. Jason Ness says it’s one of his favorite events because of the chance to recognize student’s efforts.

“We do this twice a year and it’s one of my favorite events of the school year, in large part because we recognize students who give so much to the school. They give their time and they give their talents, they give their best efforts and it’s really a nice way to celebrate with faculty, with family, and just spend a little time in giving thanks and giving appreciation, gratitude to the students of making Niles West such a great place,” Ness said.
