Good Evening Parents/Guardians and Students:
SAVE THE DATE!
On Saturday, 4/23/22 (Earth Day weekend!), from 9:30 am-1:30 pm, Arapahoe Credit Union is sponsoring a community shred-a-thon and electronic recycling event at Newton Middle School. Shredding and small electronic recycling is free, and there is a small cost for recycling larger items. We will be collecting donations for Newton on the day of the event. For all details, go to arapahoecu.org/shred
Chromebook Care
We are seeing an uptick in the games and youtube sites being downloaded on student chromebooks. We are also scrapping more chrome books now than ever before.
Students need to please take better care of the Chromebook that has been assigned to you and only do school work on these, students should use their home computers for any gaming/downloading they need to do. Some of the chromebooks are older so it is imperative to take good care of the Chromebook assigned to you!
AHS Senior Project
We have four seniors from Arapahoe High School that have requested to conduct their senior year big idea project here at Newton. Their topic is COVID 19 effects on students. The seniors are interviewing several of our teachers to gather information and perspective. They would also like to survey our students. The seniors have developed an eight question survey. We will give this survey to all of our students next week. If you prefer for your child to not take the survey and opt out please email me directly. I will place the questions below. Please don’t hesitate to contact me with any questions. Thanks for assisting these senior’s in their research. Two of them happen to be past Newton students!
Questions:
Do you prefer in person or online learning?
What aspect of your life has COVID most affected?
