Newsome Park Elementary School
Dr. Darra White, Principal
Our Mission: Our students are actively engaged in a child-centered learning environment. We provide knowledge work which is meaningful to learners and their community. Students are expected to solve problems and produce quality products that will enable them to increase their competencies to continue learning independently.
Magnet Program
Newsome Park is a Math, Science and Technology Magnet school. Technology is an integral part of each day's learning; students use technology to gather, analyze and communicate information. Magnet students have the opportunity to concentrate their studies within a well-balanced academic program. Like all elementary students, they will receive a solid foundation in reading, language arts, social studies, the arts, and health and physical education in addition to math, science and technology. Learn more about our magnet program and how to apply.
