Have a great week and remember to be kind.

LAST CALL to ORDER a YEARBOOK:

If you would like to order a yearbook for your student, the order must be placed by this coming Tuesday 1/25. Many families have already purchased one, though we would like to be sure we are including as many students as possible. Sometimes we have a few extras at the end of the year that can be purchased, but we never know until the shipment of yearbooks is sent to us. So it's better to ensure your student gets one now.

Deadline: Tuesday 1/25/22

To order, go to: https://www.yearbookordercenter.com/

School Code: 7571

Climate, Safety and Wellness Inventory (CSWI)

As part of our ongoing efforts to promote a safe and healthy culture at Newton Middle School, we are asking for your feedback through our Climate, Safety and Wellness Inventory (CSWI) this month. The survey will be open Monday, January 10th through January 31st and available in English, Spanish and Vietnamese.  It is a brief, anonymous survey that can be accessed through this link: Climate and Culture Survey or by using your smartphone to scan a QR code. The QR code will be available on our website.

If you have children at multiple schools, you can choose to complete a survey for each school or choose the school where you would most like to share your voice. 

Survey data is used to help Littleton Public Schools with continuous improvement, adjusting programs and resources to meet the needs of students and to support inclusive and safe environments for everyone in the school community. 

Please visit the LPS website for more detailed information about the survey content. We encourage your participation and support and we look forward to reviewing this important feedback!

Thanks and have a great weekend.
