Yesterday, NTU reached out to Newark Public Schools about a possible early closing today because of the expected high temperatures. We are happy to report that this morning NPS informed us:
"Due to extreme heat, NPS students will be dismissed early at 1pm today, June 18th. All after-school activities at NPS facilities are cancelled. School staff will remain on-site until students have identified a safe passage home. All NPS graduations will proceed as scheduled."

Thank you for hard work you do!
