Good morning! This is a friendly reminder that there is a 3rd session of summer school starting on July 11. However, it is for seniors only as the only course offered is senior seminar with Mr. Benner in the computer lab. Please use the doors by the science room on the west side of the high school.

Just a friendly reminder that it is never too early to start thinking about sports physicals for next year! It always seems impossible to get in when August rolls around. Plus, this way we can help the clinics out by not overwhelming them at the beginning of the school year! They work hard to get our students cleared for sports, but there are only so many hours in each day! I hope everyone has been enjoying their summer! Remember: students cannot practice until their physicals are complete and the paperwork has been submitted to the athletic director.

IMPORTANT NOTICE TO NEW TOWN PUBLIC SCHOOL DISTRICT #1 TAXPAYERS MAY 31, 2023 @ 5:45 PM NEW TOWN HIGH SCHOOL CAFETERIA The New Town Public School District is planning to hold a public hearing to consider increasing the property tax levy by 20%. This would increase the current mill levy from 36.15 to 43.38. There will be an opportunity for citizens to present oral or written comments regarding the proposed increase. If the school district does not increase the mill levy (all schools need to be at the minimum of 60 mills), the state will continue to penalize the school district by reducing foundation aid funding. The school district is scheduled to lose $4,180,888.24 dollars of state foundation aid for the 2023-2024 school year due to the district not being at 60 mills already. The meeting will be held on Wednesday, May 31, 2023, at 5:45 pm in high school cafeteria.
