If you are looking for a way to say “Thank You!” during Teacher Appreciation Week (May 6-10), please consider Newton Schools Foundations’ Honor Thy Teacher campaign. Established more than 20 years ago, this program 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 both professional development that gives teachers new tools and strategies, as well as novel curricula for elementary students. Click here to see a video or read more about NSF-funded projects, which encompass: art; civics; math; music; science; social and cultural studies; literature and writing instruction; and social-emotional learning.
After receiving each donation, NSF will:
- Notify the honored teachers and staff of your gift at the end of the school year;
- Share the honoree names with the Superintendent and Principals; and
- List each of those honored on the NSF website and in the Newton TAB.
You can make your tax-deductible donation online at www.
