Nazareth Academy Breaks Ground on New Construction

Submitted by Nazareth Academy

In July 2015, Nazareth Academy broke ground on its multi-million dollar construction program.

With the support of the Congregation of St. Joseph, our Board of Trustees, the Building Our Legacy Capital Campaign Committee, our Administration, Faculty, Staff and generations of Nazareth students, we continue our promise to make sure Nazareth’s facilities continue to be in keeping with the school’s mission.

“When visiting Nazareth, what is most evident and encouraging is witnessing the four pillars of our mission in action every day. The Building Our Legacy project will enhance that legacy for generations to come,” said Nazareth’s president, Dennis Moran.

The two-year construction project will continue to keep Nazareth thriving and achieving amazing success.

• Project will address and remedy facility infrastructure issues while adding needed fine arts and athletic facilities, which include nine new classrooms, a second gym and lights on Spirit Field.
• Project will enhance competitive educational environment by offering advanced learning facilities, updated, modernized, attractive physical facilities and high quality faculty to enrich the academic experience for our student body.
• Project will improve ability for students to utilize 21st century technology and ensure a safe, stable and stimulating learning environment.
