Every month, Newark City Schools honors about 28 students from grades 4 through 12 in every school as our Citizens of the Month. Students are chosen for what they do both inside and outside of the classroom. Also every month, a different group from one of our schools performs for students and their families. This month, Newark High School's Drama program performed improv for the students and their families.

Thank you to Energy Cooperative for sponsoring this month's lunch. Congratulations to the April 2015 Citizens of the Month. Here is a photo gallery on Facebook.
