Communication

From school and the classroom

Schools want to keep you informed about news, events and opportunities to be involved in your student’s school. Most schools rely on a variety of communication tools to keep you informed, including e-mail, school website, telephone, our mobile app, social media, blogs, and SeeSaw.

 

Newberg Mobile App

The Newberg School District mobile app makes home to school communication quick and easy. Immediate messages or notifications from school, personalized news, calendars and student information in over 60 languages is delivered right to your phone, tablet or computer. Download the Newberg SD app to your Apple or android device from the Apple App Store or Google Play.  You can receive school news, keep track of calendar events,  monitor attendance and cafeteria balances when you activate your student information on the Newberg mobile app. If you have not received an e-mail with a login and password to set up your student’s information account, please contact your school office.

School news and a calendar of events, news, resources and important school information for parents and students are on your school website.

 

Automated Telephone Notification

Attendance, important announcements, reminders and emergency information may be communicated to your home or cell phone using an automated telephone notification system. Home, cell and work telephone numbers will be contacted in the event of an emergency or school closure. A single, primary telephone number will be used for less immediate messages. Please be sure your school has your current contact information.

 

Telephone Hotlines

School closure information line 503-554-5001

First Student Snow Line – 503-538-5897

Sports Hotline – 503-554-5200

 

e-mail

Schools regularly use e-mail for weekly announcements and news. Be sure to let the school office know if your contact information changes.

 

Text Messages

Opt in or out of text messages and announcements from school from the Newberg mobile app. Schools and district will text all student contact numbers in the event of an emergency.

 

eFriday Folder

The Electronic Friday Folder is designed to connect families with opportunities for students in our community. This online format replaces paper flyers in your student's backpack. A weekly email will link you to current events, afterschool classes and activities, school events, informational flyers and sports/recreation events and opportunities.
 

Keep Your Contact Information Current

Contact your school office if you have changed your address, telephone number or e-mail address or if there are changes in your emergency contact.
