Good Afternoon NVTHS families,
It has been wonderful to see our halls filled with energy again this week. The students have done a fantastic job settling back into their routines after the winter break, and there is a great sense of focus in our classrooms as we dive into the new year.
As we look toward next week, we have several important schedule notes and academic milestones to share:
Wednesday, January 14: Half-Day for Students Students will be dismissed at 12:00pm. Please ensure your child’s transportation arrangements are set for the early dismissal.
Thursday, January 15: Parent-Teacher Conferences We look forward to welcoming you to campus on Thursday evening. These conversations are a vital part of our partnership in supporting your child’s growth. If you have not yet scheduled your time slot, please use the provided link - Link to Master Conference Sign-Up Sheet
Friday, January 16: Trimester 2 Progress Reports Progress reports will be available in the Aspen Family Portal. This is an excellent opportunity to review your child’s mid-term achievements and set goals for the remainder of the trimester.
Thank you for your continued support and for helping us make the transition back to school so smooth.
Have a great weekend!
Jeremy Slotnick, Principal

LINKED AND LIVABLE NEIGHBORHOODS: LITTLETON ROAD
The Town of Westford is creating a plan for new and improved walking and bicycling facilities, and connections to open spaces in the Littleton Road area, as it was recently rezoned to allow for the possibility of multi-family housing development (MBTA Communities zoning).
The Plan will coordinate private development projects in the area and guide future town investments to create a cohesive network of sidewalks, bike facilities, trails, and open spaces.
Attend the Workshop on January 24, 2026 to learn more about the project.
