December 2024
As we wrap up Thanksgiving and begin preparations for the Holiday season I hope you all find peace, joy and relaxation this holiday season!
A few important deadlines for the new year are below. If you plan to register for the Adult Diploma program, Driver education, or Enrichment Community classes please be sure to register before the deadlines.
When there is inclement weather, Nashua Center for Lifelong Learning (NCLL) follows the same schedule as the Nashua School District for closures and delays. If afternoon sports are cancelled NCLL classes are also canceled. WMUR has a full listing.
Have a happy and healthy new year!
