The Newark Public School district has three historical GEMS that are well over 100 years old, Newton Street School is one of them. SHAME on the Newark Public School district for wanting to ERASE the HISTORY of OUR NEWTON STREET COMMUNITY and history of the CITY OF NEWARK, NEW JERSEY! WE, the invested stakeholder's of Newton Street School welcome any additional resources to uplift academic learning for Newark scholars. The significance of the school's name has generational and historical value, the below signatures are in support of the school name remaining as "Newton Street School."
