Calling Future Stars!
We are currently enrolling new kindergartners! If you have a future Nashua Star at home who will turn five before August 1st, please call the office at 321-5160. Mark your calendars for Mach 28th from 6:00-7:30 pm! We will be having our annual Kindergarten Round-Up! Meet our Kindergarten team, some of our Encore Staff, tour the building, and take a bus ride around the neighborhood! It’s planning to be a boot scootin’ good time!
2020-21 Class Placements
Class placement is a team decision here at Nashua with many factors taken into consideration. If you feel your child has specific needs to be considered, please fill out the Parent Input Form for Student Placement and return it to the office by Tuesday, April 9th.

Family Fun Night: Nashua's Family Fun Night will be April 24th this year. We are in need of donations for our raffle. If you own or know a business that would be willing to donate, please contact Kristy at Kristy.schopf@gmail.com.
Do you have a Middle School or an A+ High School Student looking for volunteer hours? Our Family Fun Night has opportunities for your student to help with games and earn service hours - bit.ly/NashuaFFNHours
We also need Game Makers, who will make, set up and tear down each classroom's activity that night. PTA will recruit teens to run the games, so you will not need to stay with it. Kids will vote for their favorite activity that night - if your class wins, you win a prize, too! - bit.ly/NashuaClassVolunteers
