Nashoba is proud of its many accomplishments. From academics to fine and performing arts, to athletics, to extra-curricular activities that extend well beyond the perimeters of the classroom, our students distinguish themselves as scholars, athletes, artists, and overall contributors to the world around them. On so many levels, and in so many ways, Nashoba students excel

While the complexities of the pandemic impact are a part of our current reality, the Nashoba Regional School District learning community is strong and abundantly talented Each and every day, our faculty and staff actively work to build a learning culture rooted in excellence for our students, creating high-quality learning experiences that both accelerate learning and meet individual student needs. A developing foundation of multi-tiered systems of support and the implementation of universal assessment screeners for reading (K-8) and mathematics (K-9), Star Assessments, have become our common lexicon, further supporting our efforts to identify and address the unique learning needs of each student. With timely assessment data in hand, teachers have been able to provide targeted instruction to help our students achieve their full potential and excel in their own right. The path to learning recovery and achievement are evident.
