• At Norris Middle School we want our Redbirds to be safe and learning at a high level.  We do ask that all students have their hoods off during the school day.  Having your hood off helps us keep our building safe and allows you to be better engaged in the classroom.  If you are having a difficult day, please take time to scan the QR code for your counselor or come see your administrator.  We our here to help you.  Thank you, Redbird Nation!
