Nansemond River High School is a public secondary school in Suffolk, Virginia. It opened in September 1990 and originally consisted of students from three of the four former high schools of Suffolk, VA, John F. Kennedy High School,[disambiguation needed] John Yeates High School, and Suffolk High School. Nansemond River opened its doors to approximately 1700 students. The student population swelled to nearly 2000 students in the year of 2003, and in 2004, a new high school, King's Fork, was formed. As a result of the population dropping in the 2004-2005 school year to about 1100 students. However, the following year, the school opened its doors to about 1200 students once again. The current principal of this school is Mr. Thomas Mclemore, and the assistant principals, or administrators, are Mrs. Janice Bibbo, Mr. James Carnegie, and Mr. Michael Milteer.
Because of rezoning in 2004, the school district is composed of the rapidly suburbanizing Northeastern corner of the city. Comprising the neighborhoods of Harbour View, Creekside, and the Yeates area, and other well established communities such as Pughsville, Huntersville, and Bellville.
