COVID Data and Masking |
Over the past few weeks, Newton Public Schools has seen a rise in COVID cases, leading to staff and student absences. District wide, for the week of May 11-18, 2022, there were 359 student cases and 42 staff cases. The prior week (May 5-11, 2022), there were 331student cases and 62 staff cases. You can access current Newton-specific COVID data on the Newton HHS website: City of Newton COVID Case Data Newton Public Schools COVID Case Data **Given the increase in cases in our community, the Newton Public Schools STRONGLY recommends students and staff wear a mask. A well-fitting, high quality mask is very effective in reducing the transmission of COVID.** |
