Wondering what YOU can do to help our NPS kids safely return to school in these uncertain times?

Wondering what YOU can do to help our kids safely return to school in these uncertain times? The Norwich Public Schools Education Foundation is asking you to donate to the COVID-19 Reopening Fund. The Foundation will donate all funds raised to Norwich Public Schools, which will purchase picnic tables to help our students and staff SAFELY return to school this fall.

The picnic tables will be placed outdoors for students and staff, allowing them to take a break while maintaining all safety protocols.

The school district hopes to reach its goal to have ten (10) picnic tables at each school building, and are therefore in need of 100 tables.

The cost to reopen our schools comes at a heavy cost, and NPS leadership is finding creative ways to minimize that financial impact. Your help and support in the process is greatly appreciated.

Please share this request with everyone you know. You can indeed make a difference! The Foundation thanks you for consideration as well as our awesome NPS students and staff!
