Dear NRHS Community,

We have an early release day on Friday 4/8 for students for staff professional development.
We will be hosting several events on Friday - the Reality Fair for our 10th graders as well as the regional GSA meeting. Outside participants will need parking spots, so we will not be issuing one day spots for students on that day. Please plan accordingly.
Weekly COVID safety checks continue on Thursdays during long block.
Consider signing up to volunteer for Challenge Day - details below.
The last day of Quarter 3 is Friday 4/15
April Vacation is the week of April 18th

Have a great week!

Challenge Day Volunteer Opportunity

Dear NRHS parents/guardians,

Nashoba Regional High School is excited to partner this year with Challenge Day to support social emotional learning and community building for our students. This past fall, our 10th graders engaged in the experience and this April, we will be hosting Challenge Day for our 9th graders.

Challenge Day is a research based program that has been in existence for over 30 years, has served over 2,700 schools and over 1.7 million students and educators. It is a powerful experience that helps build empathy and connections, and has been demonstrated to improve school culture and climate.

Part of the effectiveness and powerful impact of Challenge Day is the adult to student ratio. We are looking to expand our adult participation beyond school staff members to parents and guardians as a way to increase community connections at NRHS. If you are interested in learning more about Challenge Day, click HERE. Below are the dates scheduled for NRHS. If you are interested in volunteering your time, please fill out the quick google survey. We are looking for 10-15 participants for each day and people should only sign up for one day. You do not need to be the parent/guardian of a 9th grader to volunteer.
