Newt Happenings: August 15, 2025 Family Newsletter
As the school year draws to a close, I'm thrilled to share some incredibly exciting news about how we've met and exceeded our school culture and academic learning targets! This year has been a testament to what we can achieve when we work together as a strong, supportive community.
This message is to inform you of a necessary adjustment to our school's grade level configuration for the upcoming school year.
Over the break, we decided to paint the gym. This was a decision that I and others have pondered over for some time. Tradition vs change.
A couple of years ago, we decided to prioritize early interventions, especially in reading at the Newark Street School. Results of last year’s state literacy assessments, current iReady assessments, and classroom formative assessments are demonstrating positive results.
State testing for students in grades 3-8 begins tomorrow. We understand that testing can sometimes be a source of anxiety, and we want to ensure our students feel prepared and confident.
So much to share!!I highly encourage you to take 30 minutes or so with this one. Watch the Community Cooking Video. Listen to the Voices of Rural VT Teachers Podcast featuring Ms. Lauren and read the KESD feature as well. Complete the student led conference survey.
