The information below is updated for the 2023-24 school year!
My name is Cathy Haywood – this is my 28th year teaching chemistry. I have been at NWHS for 17 years. I previously taught at Grimsley, Southeast Raleigh and Harnett Central HS. I graduated from NCSU (go Wolfpack) and I am Nationally Board Certified in Chemistry. I was born in Syracuse, NY so I am also an Orangemen fan. I am married to a local attorney and have two awesome daughters. I also have a twin sister who is a vet at Lawndale animal hospital here in town. I co-coach the NWHS Science Olympiad team - check it out using the link to the left!
Students and parents are encouraged to use the Canvas page for all chemistry materials!

All Chemistry students have the option to purchase their own safety goggles (that they can use for all science classes). Currently, the goggles we have are older (but safe!) and are used throughout the day by various students (they are cleaned in between uses in a germicidal UV goggle cabinet). This is not required, but I think many students would like to have their “own” pair of safety goggles.
On Amazon, there are chemical splash goggles for around $5 (that might include my Amazon prime discount shipping )
