NLG is expanding our classroom space!
Construction has begun to add more classrooms to our building at 10 Oak Park
Drive. When this renovation is completed, NLG will begin to add 15 more students
to our current enrollment of 76 students.
Come see our newest classrooms and help us celebrate our expansion at our Open House on Saturday, May 15, 2010 from 1:00 – 4:00 pm. For more information, please email Ann Rosas: ann.rosas@nashobalearninggroup.org.
Work has begun on NLG’s playground!
NLG is proud to announce we’ve broken
ground for our Spartan Playground. Thank you to all who donated funds and
specific items through the Giving Tree and to Scott Indermuehle of Sudbury
Designs for contributing his time and talents to the design of the playground.
NLG’s playground will be a new learning environment for our students; a place to
enhance motor and social skills, provide regular physical activity and be
another source of fun in the NLG school day!
A Tribute to Heroes
On May 8th NLG held a fundraiser at the Boston Harbor Hotel in
Boston. The guest speaker was Marcus Luttrell, author of “Lone Survivor:
The Eyewitness Account of Operation Redwing & The Lost Heroes of SEAL Team 10”,
