Send in Pictures and Help Build the Yearbook Our yearbook this year will no doubt be the most unique one your kids will have. To make it great we need you all to act as photographers. Let’s start with those First Day pictures, pictures of remote set-ups, or anything from the start of school. Pictures should be of Newcastle students only and at least 750KB in size. Send pictures to jessiej0608@gmail.com.
Save the Date! PTSA Membership Meeting Featuring Dr. Wood Our first General Membership Meeting of the year is on Monday, Sept. 28 from 6:30-7:30pm.

We will be voting on our PTSA Standing Rules and our budget for the year and will then quickly move to an opportunity to connect with Dr. Wood. Don’t miss the chance to influence what the PTSA will do this year AND to get your questions answered by Dr. Wood.
