important announcement
New Town Public School District #1 Notice to Community Cell Phone Policy Implementation Dear Parents, Students, and Stakeholders, This policy isn’t meant to upset anyone, it is actually designed to increase safety by limiting bullying and harassment among students and interferes with learning in the classroom. The district recognizes the importance of balancing the benefits of technology with the need for a focused and distraction-free learning environment. We have tried allowing students to use their phones responsibly in the past, but unfortunately, many continue to use them in class. We have ordered pouches for each phone and other electronics. While we wait for the pouches to arrive, students can also store their phones in the offices. If students prefer, they can leave their phones and other technology at home until the pouches are available. We are confident that implementing this “NO CELL PHONE POLICY” will benefit everyone involved. Many other schools have found similar policies to be successful, and we’re excited to see the positive impact it will have on our school district. In fact, other school districts on the Fort Berthold Indian Reservation are implementing a similar policy as well. Sincerely, Marc S. Bluestone Sr. Superintendent

Updated 8.14.24 ...We apologize for all of the changes. Welcome back! School starts on Thursday, August 15th. The elementary school is currently in a construction zone.

Parents will need to come east on Eagle Drive and turn left onto Second Avenue in the mornings. They can drop their student off in front of the school. This will be the same for pick up. The busses will come east down Eagle Drive and drop off in the morning. After school, they will come east down Eagle Drive and turn right into the bus drive for pick up. The red arrows on the map show the direction of all traffic. Please be aware that this map can change as the construction changes. It's a mess and we sincerely apologize. Please be patient with us each day and make the beginning of school a success!
