Dear Newark Middle School PTSA Members and Families,
NMS PTSA Board wanted to take a moment to send our warmest holiday wishes to you and your loved ones. We hope your holidays are filled with joy, rest, and time with the people who matter most.
Looking back on this first half of the school year, we are incredibly proud of what we’ve accomplished together.
We held our first Car Show Fundraiser which raised $2.5K.
We donated $1,100 worth of classroom supplies to our teachers.
We held a successful fall campus beautification where we painted, weeded, and more.
6 Raspberry Pi computers were donated to the Python Club.
PTSA donated 5 new cafeteria posters.
So far we have awarded a total of $1,742 in grants to teachers to help with supplies and special projects.
We showed our appreciation for our teachers and staff by hosting a holiday luncheon.
None of it would have been possible without you.
We want to extend a sincere thank you for your incredible support:
For Volunteering: To those who gave their time to help with events - your energy keeps our school spirit alive.
For Participating: Thank you for showing up! Whether it was a general meeting, or a fundraiser - your presence strengthens our school community.
For Donating: Your financial contributions and material donations have directly supported mini grants, classroom supplies, staff holiday party and more - making a tangible difference for our students and teachers.
We are excited to return in January to continue supporting our students and staff. We have some wonderful events planned for the spring, and we can’t wait to share them with you soon.
Thank you for being such a vital part of the Newark Middle School family.
We wish you a very Happy New Year and a wonderful start to 2026!
With gratitude,
The NMS PTSA Board
