Students are encouraged to sign up to take the ASVAB Test which will be offered at NASH on Thursday, March 30,  at 8:00 a.m. in The Place.  Please stop by the NASH Main Office to register for the test before the end of the day Tuesday, March 28.  The ASVAB exam is an aptitude test designed to help young people align their strengths and interests with a post-secondary plan that works to their advantage. It measures a student’s developed abilities and helps predict future academic and occupational success.  The test takes about three hours and includes 200 items. With our ever-changing workforce, the team here at NASH feels the ASVABwill give students the best direction possible when planning what they would like to do after high school.
