Elementary Schools Start Earlier
Newton Public Schools June 22, 2015
Dear Elementary Families,
My first year in Newton has gone by so quickly. It has been such a pleasure to walk through the elementary schools during this past school year and witness teachers and students engaged in wonderful teaching and learning experiences. We hope that your children have had a positive and productive school year.
As we wrap up the final days of school, plans for the coming school year are well underway. We want to let you know that there will be a new start time for all elementary schools beginning in September. School doors will open with the first bell at 8:20 a.m. and the second bell will now be at 8:25 a.m. This change adds ten minutes daily to our elementary school schedule with classroom activities beginning at 8:25 a.m.
If you should have any questions, please feel free to leave a message in our elementary community feedback folder at elementary_feedback@newton.k12.ma.us.
Best wishes for an enjoyable summer!
Sincerely,
Cynthia Paris Jeffries
Assistant Superintendent for Elementary Education
