Dear Nashoba Tech Families,
We are reaching out to let you know that our students are able to visit Nashoba Tech Monday through Friday for a grab and go breakfast and lunch. This will occur in front of Nashoba Tech between 11:00 and 12:00 pm.
Nashoba Tech students may also have opportunities for meal pick up in their town of residence in cooperation with our sending communities. For example, Nashoba Tech students that reside in Littleton may pick up two days of breakfast and lunch on Tuesday, March 17 and Thursday, March 19 between 8:00 and 10:00 am at the main entrance of Littleton High School by the flag pole. Nashoba Tech students residing in Lowell may also visit the Lowell district website for details on meal pick up. Nashoba Tech students that reside in Ashby, Pepperell and Townsend can also place an order to be picked up at North Middlesex Regional High School by visiting their website and filling out a meal service request.
Please know, we are committed to helping our families in any way we can during this difficult time. If you have any questions regarding meal service please do not hesitate to reach out to the Principal’s office and we will assist you.

Dear Nashoba Tech Community,
As we continue to navigate COVID-19, your Athletic Department and Health Department have collaborated to offer workout plans to help keep you active in a safe and healthy way. Social distancing must be taken seriously, and we are encouraging you to stay away from the gym and other fitness facilities and instead exercise at home or outside taking the necessary precautions.
Using the link below, you will find access to the following workouts and workout programs:
Nashoba Tech - At Home Workouts
5-Week Bodyweight Workout Challenge
H.I.I.T. (High Intensity Interval Training) Workout
Walking to Running - 30 Day Plan
5-Week Couch to 5K Training Plan
Individual Workout Challenges
Stretching and Flexibility
Take a walk/run/hike/bike - our community is full of outdoor trails and nature areas, now is the time to enjoy them.
In addition to these suggestions, we encourage you to respect the social distancing recommendations of the CDC and other health experts. This means:
Do not have people over your house. This creates new links and possibilities for the type of transmission that school/work/public event closures are trying to prevent.
Do not share food or drinks.
Stay home as much as possible to reduce your risk of being exposed and prevent spread.
Wash your hands thoroughly after touching surfaces in public places and upon returning home from any public place.
Carry hand sanitizer with you and use it regularly.
Avoid touching your face, nose, eyes, etc.
Clean and disinfect your home to remove germs: practice routine cleaning of frequently touched surfaces (for example: cell phones, doorknobs, light switches, handles, toilets)

Update on Spring Sport Season
March 16, 2020
The MIAA Board of Directors voted today, March 16, 2020, to amend the start of the 2020 spring sports season in light of recent mandates from Governor Baker and recommendations from governing health agencies. The updated start date for the 2020 spring season is April 27, 2020.
Additionally, the MIAA Board of Directors voted to have completion of regular season and tournament games by June 20, 2020 with consideration of June 21, 2020 for weather and facility needs.
Details regarding the structure of the spring season will be addressed by the Tournament Management Committee (TMC). An update will be provided and reviewed by the Board by March 25, 2020.
These decisions are based on available information and are made in the best interest of our student-athletes, schools and communities. These decisions will be revisited and adjusted as needed.
Thank you for your patience while dealing with this very fluid situation. Be well.
Students from Ayer, Shirley, Westford, and Chelmsford will be able to visit Nashoba Tech for a grab and go breakfast and lunch between 11 and 12 beginning tomorrow, Tuesday, March 17 at the front entrance. LIttleton students may pick up two days worth of breakfast and lunch Tuesday, March 17 and Thursday, March 19 between 8 and 10 am at the flagpole near the main entrance of LIttleton High School.

Community Ed Updates: In accordance with Gov. Baker's executive order closing all schools through April 6th, Nashoba Tech is also closed for all evening classes -- please check your email for more details and updates.
To Nashoba Tech Students and Parents:
As you are likely aware, Governor Baker just issued an executive order closing all schools from March 16th with a school return date of April 7th. This will extend Nashoba’s previously issued closure. Nashoba Valley Technical High School will be moving forward with a distance learning program and planning is underway. More details will follow soon. We thank you for your patience. To facilitate this endeavor, we ask that any student that currently has his or her Chromebook at the school come with a parent or guardian to collect their Chromebook or other necessary, personal belongings tomorrow. If your child has medications at school that he or she requires, you will be able to collect these as well. The building will be open during the following times for students and parents.

Co-op and Internship update: In conjunction with our school closure, we are officially suspending co-op and internship activities until students are back to campus.

We look forward to getting beyond this as soon as possible and getting back to work.
