Are you interested in singing? Looking for an a cappella group? We are seeking new members from all grades to join the Newton South Newtones!
To learn about our social-distanced auditions, make sure you come to an information meeting for audition details and info on all other things Newtones!
The meetings are no commitment so no worries if you end up deciding this isn’t the group for you. They’re simply an easy way to get info and to meet/see our group! You don’t have to come to both meetings; they will have the same info. If you can’t make it to either session, don’t worry because we will have the recorded zoom webinar up on our YouTube and likely IGTV as well ASAP following the zoom. If you know anyone at Newton South who may be interested in auditioning for this award-winning, fun group, please spread the word! Email thenshsnewtones@gmail.com or dm us on Instagram with any questions, we’d love to chat with you.
As always, DM or email us with any questions! We can’t wait to see all you guys :)))
Best,
Grace Tourtelotte and Eva Pearlman

The PTSO is launching our Mentoring/Family Connection Program for Students and Families to help build new connections in our school community.
A Student Mentor should be a Junior or Senior at South who is willing to be a resource and can offer their support, knowledge and skills to help a student Buddy, who is new to South, a Freshman or Sophomore. A Mentor Family would be willing to be a resource to support 1 or 2 families who are new to South, to Newton, to the US.
This is not a tutoring program. It is a community building program to help form new connections. There’s no structure to the connection – whatever works for the Mentor & Buddy. Our South Community is vast and supportive. Please sign up by Friday, October 9th if you are interested in being a Mentor or Buddy. After the sign up period, our coordinators will followup with an email to both Mentor/Buddy so they can connect. We hope this program will help students find new connections and an opportunity for families to have local resources to navigate South and Newton.

WHEN: October 1, thru October 31, 2020
To sign up CLICK HERE. Provide your name, email address, cell phone number, mailing address, and any allergies. Sign up ends 9/30.
Participants will receive an email with contact information for one classmate by October 2.
Connect with other 9th grade students for some fun and friendship.
Here’s how it works… All who sign up will be assigned a classmate to be an anonymous
“Secret Student” to for one month. This role involves sending regular encouraging texts, memes, video links, emails, letters, or small gifts (under $5) and clues to your identity.
Simultaneously, every participant will also be on the receiving end of a Secret Student.
At the end of 4 weeks (on October 31) all identities should be revealed and a special Halloween Treat provided (think candy bar, silly photo, or fun meme).
Hopefully, some friendships will be sparked. At the very least, two connections will be made, and the previous 4 weeks will have included some mystery and fun to pass the
time.

Newton South has Facebook Groups for each graduating class. These groups are not part of the PTSO or Newton South. These are private groups at Newton South and are just another forum for connecting in that graduating class.
The Facebook groups are set up as private, requiring membership, and voluntarily managed by Newton South parents/guardians. The Administrators would monitor the page and approve membership.
