Congratulations to the students who achieved academic awards during the 2nd quarter of the 2020-21 school year. The lists are below:

Newark City Schools' Community Outreach Department received two awards from the Ohio School Public Relations Association. The Mark of Excellence Awards are presented annually to school public relations personnel and districts, recognizing work that promotes public education. NCS received the awards in two categories: Marketing Materials, for the district's "Great Time to Be a Cat" banner; and Student Video, for the Wildcat Network's 2019-2020 Girls Basketball Hype video.

School lunches are continuing to be offered at no cost through the rest of the 2020-21 school year, after the Ohio Department of Education received approval to continue the program. Parents do not need to fill out any additional forms for the school lunch program to receive this benefit for the 2020-21 school year.

Superintendent David Lewis was able to visit classrooms across the district this month to congratulate our December 2020 Citizens of the Month. Students are honored monthly based on their actions inside and outside of the classroom at school. They are nominated by their teachers. 

Congratulations to all students who were recognized as December 2020 Citizens of the Month.

School lunch menus are now available for the 2020-21 school year. Thank you for being patient as our food service department worked to finalize lunch offerings this year.
