Every month, Newark City Schools honors about 28 students from grades 4 through 12 in every school as our Citizens of the Month. Students are chosen for what they do both inside and outside of the classroom. Also every month, a different group from one of our schools performs for students and their families. This month, the Newark High School Sinfonia performed. Thank you to Newark Rotary for sponsoring this month's lunch. Find a photo gallery of the event here. Congratulations to our December Citizens of the Month.
