The Nanuet News
June 2026
Letter from the Superintendent
Dear Nanuet Families and Community,
And just like that ... it's June!
We have survived the worst winter in years, the chilliest spring in recent memory and we are now enjoying the gorgeous weather and spring blooms everywhere. We are winding down in many ways, yet still as busy as ever. This month our Nanuet News! is filled with fun photos and highlights from every kind of classroom and after-school activity imaginable. The smiles and joyful expressions across the district paint a picture of students loving learning and enjoying the many opportunities for enrichment that exist in our schools.
Thank you to our Nanuet taxpayers for recently passing our budget, which provides the financial resources needed to support our high-quality schools. Facilities projects and work are scheduled for the summer, especially at Highview Elementary School, but we will still host summer camps across the district so that our Knights of all ages can experience summer fun right here in our schools.
We send our best wishes for the many end-of-the-year events to all students and families!
Sincerely,
Lisa Brady, Ed.D.
Superintendent
Senior Awards
Decision Day
The Nanuet Senior High School Class of 2026 has its sights set on the future. Held each May in high schools across the country, Decision Day gives students the chance to celebrate their post-graduation plans, whether heading to a two-year or four-year college, entering the workforce or pursuing vocational opportunities. See pictures on Instagram.
Teacher for a Day
Double Vision! Several Nanuet seniors moved to the head of the class for the annual “Teacher for a Day” fundraiser organized by the Student Senate. Proceeds from the “Teacher for a Day” fundraiser benefit the Virginia Aitken Scholarship, awarded annually by the Student Senate to one or more graduating seniors. See the photos in our Facebook post.

Lunch With the Littles
Look at all these smiling faces. This month, George W. Miller Elementary School hosted “Lunch with the Littles,” an opportunity for students to share lunch with their families. Several kindergarten students couldn’t contain their excitement as they rounded the corner to see a special someone sitting at one of the cafeteria tables waiting for them. See pictures on Instagram.
