Newman Parents Association

Dear Newman Parents,

Welcome to the 2026-27 school year from the Newman Parents Association! The NPA works to support the School, build connections, and enrich our children's experience at Newman. We invite you to get involved in our community, meet other parents, and share your talents. 

Just as there are many ways for your child to get involved at Newman, there are several ways for parents to engage in the life of the School. With over 20 committees and 100 committee members, we have options for every parent to volunteer. If you have a little or lots of time to volunteer, we have a place for you. Please take a moment to view the extensive list of Volunteer Opportunities and sign up to volunteer for an NPA event and/or committee through the NPA Volunteer and Nomination Form. 

Follow the Newman Parents Association Special Events account on Instagram @greenieparents to stay updated on all the exciting NPA happenings throughout the year. Curious how you can be involved? Email us! We are so grateful for the support of so many parents and look forward to an exciting year full of opportunity. 

Go Greenies!
