Newberry Area Schools has continued to partner with MSU Extension to offer Teen Mental Health First Aid (tMHFA) to ninth grade students beginning Wednesday, April 2, 2025. For this session, ninth graders were able to choose if they wished to enroll in the course. Teen Mental Health First Aid teaches high schoolers how to identify, understand and respond to signs of mental health and substance use challenges among their friends and peers and how to get assistance from a trusted adult.

The elementary will be wrapping up their reading month celebration on Monday, March 31, 2025. If you did not get your completed reading month calendar turned in before we went on break, please send it in Monday morning. We will be doing the bike drawing during our pride-a-palooza assembly.

This week’s student of the week is Aubree Patterson chosen by Mr. Thornton. Aubree is a 6th grade student who is working very hard this year and a pleasure to have in class. She is always willing to help. She enjoys hanging out with her friends and trying her best in order to achieve her goals at school. Aubree has been doing an amazing job in both Mrs. Staley’s and Mr. Thornton’s classes. When she’s not at school she enjoys spending time with her family and going on fun trips. Congratulations Aubree!

ALL TESTING WILL BE AT THE AMERICAN LEGION. STUDENTS WILL BE BUSSED THERE AND BACK TO SCHOOL.
