NHE Holiday Gift Card Drive

Help support Newport Heights families who need extra assistance during the holiday season. Our school is holding a gift card drive to provide this extra support. All donations go directly to NHE students and their families.

Gift cards in $25 increments are suggested, but ANY amount helps.
Donations requested by November 30th.
Drop off at the school office Attn: Ana Lewis

Did you know? Ana Lewis, the NHE Family Engagement Specialist, reports that many community partners will be limited in their ability to assist Newport Heights families with holiday needs this year. If you have the means to do so, please help us provide this support.

Supporting Students of Color

PTA Notes from the Backpack Podcast 48

How can schools do a better job affirming children’s racial identities? Dr. Shawn Jones, psychologist and professor at the Virginia Commonwealth University, joined the podcast to offer guidance on creating schools that better serve students of color. He shares how families can help by talking openly and honestly about their own experiences with race. He also offers suggestions for how white families can be part of the effort to create more affirming schools for students of color.
