Newport School District

SENIORS - ApplyNH Day is THIS THURSDAY, November 16th, from 12:00 - 2:15 in the Media Center. College applications for NH-based schools should be complete and ready to submit by that time (application fees for all NH schools are waived at the event). It is requested (although not required) that students visit the Guidance Office to sign up for a timeslot ahead of time. This event is also a time when Seniors may apply to schools outside of NH (although fees will still apply) and work on resumes or submit job applications with the help of experts. One Newport student who submits a college application during the event will win a $500 scholarship! College admissions professionals will be on hand to answer questions and help be sure that applications are at their finest before submitting.

ATTENTION VETERANS! - You are invited for breakfast and a Veterans Day ceremony at Newport High School on Thursday, November 9th. Students will make and serve a delicious breakfast between 9:00 and 10:00 AM, which will be followed by a meaningful Veterans Day ceremony starting at 10:00 AM.

Emailed to Newport School District Families Friday, June 9, 2023 Bus Transportation Issues for the Week of June 12-15, 2023 Dear Newport School District Families, We would like to inform you of some changes to bus routes next week June 12-15, 2023. We will only have 3 bus drivers during this week due to a driver shortage. Due to this shortage, we regret to inform you that we will be unable to provide transportation for our preschool students during this period. We understand that this may cause inconvenience and we sincerely apologize for any disruption this may cause to your family's routine. To ensure that we can accommodate as many students as possible, we have made the decision to combine bus routes. We will be splitting Bus 10 riders between Bus 4 and Bus 3. All Bus 11 riders will change to Bus 7. Please review to familiarize yourself with any changes that may affect your child's transportation. We understand that this transition may present challenges, and we truly appreciate your patience and understanding during this time. Our dedicated team is working to address the driver shortage. If you have any questions or concerns about this transportation transition,please reach out to our transportation coordinator, Caleb Godwin. He will be happy to assist you and can be contacted via email at cgodwin@sau43.org or by phone at (603) 454-8448. Once again, we sincerely apologize for any inconvenience caused by this situation. We assure you that we are making every effort to ensure that all students receive transportation to school. Thank you for your continued support and cooperation, Donna, Superintendent Bus 7 https://core-docs.s3.amazonaws.com/documents/asset/uploaded_file/2797/SAU43/3118454/Bus_Route_7___6__1_.pdf Bus 4 & 10 https://core-docs.s3.amazonaws.com/documents/asset/uploaded_file/2797/SAU43/3118455/Bus_Route_10___4__1_.pdf Bus 3 & 10 https://core-docs.s3.amazonaws.com/documents/asset/uploaded_file/2797/SAU43/3118456/Bus_Route_3___10__1_.pdf
