Hello NRHS Community,

I hope this message finds you doing well. We are in the final few weeks of October and we are quickly coming to the end of Quarter 1 (11/2/23). School spirit is alive and well at NRHS with a great "Pink" theme at our home football game on Friday. It was also middle school band night and we had a fantastic turnout of middle school band members that was the largest we have ever had. Their performances with our high school band members were fantastic!

This week:

School Council is meeting this Wednesday 10/18 in the back of the Library from 6-7pm
Reminder that this Friday 10/20 is an early release day for students
PSAT for 11th graders who signed up is this Friday 11/20 beginning at noon. Students are reminded to bring their lunch
10/20 is the Senior Sunrise event

Looking ahead:

Picture retakes are 10/26
Homecoming Dance 11/4

Best,

Dr. Kathleen Boynton, principal

Looking for Internship Partners for our Future Innovation Pathway Programming

Last week, we shared that Nashoba Regional High School was selected as one of only 31 high schools to be awarded a grant from the state of Massachusetts to establish an Innovation Pathways Program. We are beyond thrilled! Guided by survey results gathered from our community, our Nashoba Innovation Pathways planning team has decided to pursue implementation of two career pathways for the 2024-2025 school year: an Advanced Engineering and Manufacturing Pathway and a Business and Finance Pathway.

An essential element of the Pathways programming is relevant, real-world experience. To that end, we are actively seeking internship opportunities within our local community to support the experiences of this future programming. We believe that internships will not only benefit our students, they will also help create support for the connections we have within our local community. We are seeking potential internship partners and asking our families for help. If you or someone you know can offer a possible internship opportunity in their field for either our Business and Finance Pathway or our Advanced Engineering and Manufacturing Pathway, we ask that you complete this form.

Your support in considering to support internship opportunities for our high school students is invaluable. Please note that completing this form does NOT commit you or your organization to providing an internship; it simply helps us gather information for future planning.
