Welcome to Amherst Street School!  Amherst Street Elementary is a school where parents and teachers work together to provide students with engaging work, challenging academics, and enriching experiences so that each student can become successful in achieving their dreams and aspirations. Our teachers are a gifted group of professionals who love your children and work tirelessly for them understanding that each day your child is at school that you are sharing the most precious part of your life with us. We value the trust you have put in us and we will do all we can to make sure they are safe, happy, and challenged. We have an active group of parents who generously support our school through volunteering their time and resources. We are very appreciative of these efforts. It is no wonder that academic achievement is truly a team effort of students, parents, and staff here at Amherst Street Elementary School.

Our school is a small educational community with approximately 300 students in grades K-5 that provides a challenging and global learning environment for all.  As a school within the Nashua School District, we have access to so many supportive resources.  Being so close to historic Holman Stadium and the heart of downtown Nashua, we also enjoy the wide variety of community resources nearby including the historic society, fire station, parks, colleges, and the public library. 

A strong academic curriculum is focused on high expectations and balanced with a strong fine arts and physical education program to meet the needs of our learners.  Additional enrichment and academic opportunities are available through our 21^st Century after school program, REACH program, grants, and PTO sponsored activities.   

It is our belief that the “whole child” needs a “whole team” to achieve social and academic excellence.
