Nazareth Elementary School

Parenting has grown to include academic instruction, counseling, and mastering resources for academic intervention for our children. At times, it is daunting and overwhelming. That's what makes Nazareth Elementary such a special place.
 
Nazareth Elementary can help!

For nearly 150 years, Nazareth Elementary's faculty and staff have provided education, support, and loving care for students of all faiths and backgrounds. Let them continue this tradition with your child. At Nazareth Elementary the students don't just survive – they thrive!
 
As a private school owned and operated by the Sisters of Saint Joseph, Nazareth Elementary has the freedom to create its own programs to meet the learning styles and needs of its students. Nazareth’s curriculum is based on the NYS Next Generation Learning Standards, and every teacher takes part annually in multiple professional development opportunities. The faculty responds quickly to the needs of the times and adjusts to ever-changing situations with continuity of learning remaining a top priority. For parents concerned about the challenges within larger public schools for adapting to the pandemic response and required mandates, Nazareth Elementary is a wonderful choice. 
 
What can you, as a parent, expect from Nazareth Elementary, as it prepares to begin school in September?
