Show your support for the students of Newton Public Schools by signing this petition. This petition has one goal: to get our kids back in school immediately.

Our children are being deprived of their right to an education. We believe the NTA and City are so mired in their drive to advocate for their perspectives such that the children’s interests have been subordinated in the need to win. We understand that the two sides remain apart on several issues, but we implore you to continue your negotiations while enabling students and teachers to get back to the classroom. To be clear, we are not siding with the NTA or the City but are advocating for the children. As with all negotiations, compromises must come from both sides.

This petition demands that you reopen school TODAY!
