Friday, August 21 is National Fentanyl Prevention and Awareness Day.

One conversation could save a life.
Fentanyl is one of the most dangerous drugs facing our communities today. It is often hidden in counterfeit pills or mixed into counterfeit prescription medications without a person's knowledge. As this powerful video explains, one mistake can have permanent consequences.
This National Fentanyl Prevention and Awareness Day, we encourage every parent, caregiver, and student to take just a few minutes to watch this important message together and explore the free resources available for Nassau County families.

🎥 Watch the video: https://player.vimeo.com/video/925904443?h=12e0a90225

📚 Access the Family Resources on our website.
The Family Resources include:
• A Fentanyl Fact Sheet
• Parent Conversation Toolkit
• Student Online Learning Opportunity (earn 1.5 community service hours)
• Additional videos and educational resources

After watching the video, ask your child:
• What did you learn?
• Did anything surprise you?
• What would you do if someone offered you a pill that wasn't prescribed to you?
• Who are the trusted adults you can always talk to?

A few minutes of learning today could make a life-changing difference tomorrow.
Know the facts. Start the conversation. Protect your future.

Big dreams begin with big opportunities.

Every student's journey is unique, but one thing remains the same: preparing for the future starts today.

Students attending Nassau County School District schools have access to opportunities that challenge, inspire, and prepare them for success beyond graduation. From earning college credit through AP Classes and Dual Enrollment to gaining hands-on experience and industry certifications through our Career and Technical Education (CTE) Pathways, we're helping students graduate ready for whatever comes next.

Whether your child is just beginning their educational journey or preparing for graduation, these opportunities can help them build a strong foundation for the future.

Talk with your child's counselor to learn more about these pathways and discover how Nassau County School District can help your student reach their goals.

The first few weeks of school are an exciting time, especially for our youngest students and first time bus riders. As drivers, schools, and families help students learn their routes, pickup and drop-off times may take a little longer than usual.

We appreciate your patience and understanding as everyone settles into a safe and successful routine.

Want to know where your child's bus is? Track it in real time using our bus tracking app: https://www.nassau.k12.fl.us/o/ncsd/page/bus-tracking-apps
