Newport School Calendar 2017-18: First Day Of School, Vacations, Conferences

The first day of school in Newport is September 6 for grades 1-12 and September 8 for Kindergarten. Feel free to mark it on your calendar as one of the most dreaded days of the year for students and teachers — and feel free not to feel guilty about marking it as one of your favorites.
