Teacher Appreciation Week is May 7-11

#ThankATeacher and support Newton Schools Foundation!

If you are looking for a way to say “Thank You!” during Teacher Appreciation Week, please consider Newton Schools Foundations’ Honor Thy Teacher campaign. This special program, established more than 20 years ago, provides an opportunity for families to thank teachers or other school personnel by giving a gift to NSF in their honor.

NSF is a non-profit organization that raises funds to enhance educational excellence throughout Newton's public schools. Your gift supports opportunities for teachers to access valuable professional development, initiatives to close the achievement gap, and new learning programs for elementary students that encompass: music; science; social and cultural studies; literature and writing instruction; and social-emotional learning.

After receiving each donation (suggested amount: $25/teacher), NSF will:

·         Notify the honored teachers and staff of your gift; 
·         Share the honoree names with the Superintendent and Principals; and
·         List each of those honored in the Newton TAB.

You can make your tax-deductible donation on-line at www.newtonschoolsfoundation.org, or mail it to Newton Schools Foundation, P.O. Box 590020, Newton Centre, MA 02459. Please be sure to include the names of the teachers and/or staff that you are honoring.  Or look for a flyer that will be sent home in your child’s backpack that includes a donation form.
