Sorry for the confusion. The robo call that was just sent out by the school was a technology error. The Culture Night that was cancelled for this evening has been postponed to a later day. We sincerely apologize for the confusion. Again, there is no Culture Night at the elementary school this evening.
Friendly reminder: The New Town Public School Culture Night is this evening at the Edwin Loe Elementary School from 6-8 pm. Everyone is welcome! A meal will be served.
All afterschool activities have been canceled this evening at the New Town High School due to a power outage.

Suitcase Found:
This suitcase was found on Eagle Drive by a community member and they brought it to the school because it had a NT Eagle jersey in it. However, it was a jersey that wasn't used this year, so we still have not found the owner. If anyone knows who this suitcase belongs to, please contact the high school office.
From Interim Superintendent Marc Bluestone:
Covid Attendance Protocols
1. Students who are on isolation or quarantine are marked “absent due to Covid” once the school nurse has been notified.
2. Covid quarantine/isolation will not count toward truancy.
3. Covid quarantine/isolation will not count against non-crediting of classes
4. Teachers are to be putting assignments on TEAMs at the middle school and high school levels so students at home can access work.
5. If your student does not have access to an electronic device while on quarantine or isolation contact your building principal for work.
6. Student’s missing work will be placed on the ICU list. ICU is NOT a punishment it is a communication and tutoring system to make sure help make sure our students have reminders and support to complete work.
