Newton Community Education
About
Newton Community Education is a self-sustaining arm of the Newton Public Schools devoted to lifelong learning. It runs after-school clubs, vacation programs and summer offerings for kids and teens, along with enrichment and fitness classes for adults. The goal is building a strong, inclusive community through learning, enrichment and connection, with something on the calendar for nearly every age group each season.
Programs range widely. Toddlers aged 18 months to 4 years can attend art, music and play sessions with an adult, while elementary students get hands-on workshops on early release days and Saturday STEAM enrichment. Kids can join FUNtastic Fridays dance parties led by DJ Mike Pride, and the NAA basketball league welcomes players from third grade through high school, of all abilities and genders.
