Welcome back to a new school year in Northampton Area School District! The first day of school will be Aug. 31. This first day is virtual for all students.

***

As the beginning of this school year will be quite different, be sure to constantly check for updates and emails from your child’s school. Visit the NASD website, nasdschools.org, for all the important forms, hybrid schedules and important updates.

NASD is doing the very best to keep your child safe and to keep you informed. Please follow the hybrid schedule your child has been assigned.

If you have any questions or concerns, contact your child’s school. Be sure your child’s school has your correct phone numbers and emails.
