Grizzly Families
Hey Grizzly Family,
May is flying by quickly, as is the end of the school year. Keep checking below for the important dates as we get closer to school being over.
Our Class of 2026 Seniors had an amazing Senior Prank on Friday morning as they created a TSA Check Line to come into school. Staff and underclassmen students had to remove their shoes and step through the cardboard "scanner". Great fun was had by all. Thanks Class of 2026. See pictures below.
I also want to encourage all of you to check out our Newport High School Facebook page. It is a great place for information and more celebrations of our awesome Grizzly Family!
As always, if you ever have questions or need support, please don’t hesitate to reach out...we’re here for you.
Go Grizzlies!

Chromebook Check In
Why are we checking in all Chromebooks?
It comes down to inventory and knowing exactly how many Chromebooks we have on hand at the high school. Cost of Chromebooks are going up every year and we want to be the best stewards of money as we can be at the high school. When we check these in, we can do the necessary checks to make sure students have a functioning Chromebook.
Thanks everyone!
Class of 2026 Senior Updates
Accepted Wall
Seniors and Senior Parents...if you have been accepted to a 4 year college/university, 2 year college/university, trade school or the military, please fill out an "Accepted Form" and turn in to Mr. Bouldin so your name can go up on the wall. Students must turn in the form and present an acceptance letter in order to go up on the wall. Without both of those items completed, your name will not be added. We are good, but can't read minds...get those items to Mr. Bouldin in order to be celebrated.
