Dear NASD Families,

Thank you for your patience and flexibility as we continue to respond to today’s power outage impacting Lower Nazareth Elementary School (LNES).

For LNES families and staff, we will be pivoting to Zoom parent-teacher conferences today, Tuesday, March 17th, for those who have power and are able to participate. LNES teachers will be reaching out directly with more information, including Zoom links and options to either meet today or reschedule your conference for another day and time if needed.

For all other schools (K–12), parent-teacher conferences will continue as originally scheduled.

Given that today’s closure at LNES was the result of an emergency power outage, the Nazareth Area School District will be petitioning the Pennsylvania Department of Education (PDE) to excuse this instructional day. As a result, today will not need to be made up by students or staff.

We appreciate your understanding as we navigate this unexpected situation and work to support our students, families, and staff.

Be well,
Dr. Resende
