Nash News
Good evening Nash family and friends,
Our week was action-packed with welcoming new students, spending time with our reading buddies, building snow sculptures, rehearsing for our play. and ROARing with Nash pride!
Many thanks to our Weymouth High School students for supporting our afterschool drama program.
Playground update: Thank you to all of our donors we have raised $16,680.00 Please see our Playground Campaign using this Link:
Parent announcements:
Please dress the children warmly. The weather has finally become colder. We use a weather chart to direct how long the kids should stay outside for recess. Studies show that children need frequent breaks, fresh air and movement for their physical and mental wellness. We strive to have them go outside as much as possible (weather-dependant).

Parent Education and Social-Emotional Resources:
Please visit this site for helpful tips and resources to support the whole family:
Ways to support math at home:
Student attendance is essential for academic growth and social-emotional development. We value the time spent with family, however, we urge you to take vacations when school is not in session. If you are having difficulty getting your student to school, please reach out to me, the classroom teacher, or our school nurse. We are all here to support you and our students.
