North Attleboro High School

FSP (Family School Partnership) supports our NAHS staff throughout the school year. It is our goal to show the staff how much they are appreciated and valued. This year we will be collecting gift cards. These will be used for various teacher appreciation events throughout the year as well as occasionally gifting them directly to staff for a job well done. Donations can be dropped off at the main office anytime either by you or your student. Please put the gift card in an envelope marked FSP. Additionally, if you would like to become more involved in FSP please feel to reach out or attend one of our monthly meetings. It is a great way to meet other parents/guardians and become more connected with what is happening at NAHS. Thank you for all your support! It is much appreciated!

Please email attendancenahs@naschools.net. By emailing this information we will have a clear communication of the student’s name and reason. If your only option is to call the school and you leave a message on the absent line please be sure to speak loudly and clearly. At times we can not understand your message which means we can not record that info and a call will be sent out to you.
