Our 9th grade English students stepped into the spotlight for a special Shakespeare Open-Mic event celebrating their study of Romeo and Juliet. With mugs of "coffee" (hot chocolate) from Shakespeare’s Coffee House in hand, students embraced the Bard’s words in style by reading original sonnets in a poetry slam and performing dramatic scenes from the play. The atmosphere was warm, creative and full of laughter, as students brought Shakespeare’s language to life.

“How far you go in life depends on your being tender with the young, compassionate with the aged, sympathetic with the striving, and tolerant of the weak and strong. Because someday in your life you will have been all of these.” -George Washington Carver

Congratulations to all of our Newmark graduates! We will miss you!
Newmark Middle School and Newmark High School requires all students participating in athletic activities for the next school year (2025-26) to have completed forms on file in the school nurse’s office before a student can participate in any practice or competition.
NJDOE Requirements for 2025-26: Parents will only need to return the Sports Physical Medical Eligibility School Form to the school nurse. The Sports Physical Form will be maintained by the healthcare provider completing the physical exam.
2025-26 SPORTS ACTIVITIES
- Newmark High School: Soccer, Cross Country, Winter Track, Spring Track
- Newmark Middle School: Basketball, Soccer
2025-26 SPORTS PHYSICAL FORMS* - Required if participating in sports
If your Newmark student plans to participate in any sports for the new 2025-26 School Year, the forms below must be completed prior to participating in any practice or game.
All Sports Physical Forms can be found on the school website
Sports physicals are usually done at the same time as their annual physical with their physician. Summer pediatric appointments book up fast, so now is a good time to schedule your child’s annual examination and sports physical (if your child will participate in any Newmark sports). Remember to download and bring a copy of the required Sports Forms with you to the appointment for the doctor to fill out and sign. This year, parents need to only return the Medical Eligibility School Form. The Sports Physical Form will be maintained by the healthcare provider completing the physical exam.
Completed forms should be submitted to the nurse's office at the beginning of the school year in September 2025. Students can bring the forms into school, email to ecarroll@newmarkeducation.com or mail to:

Attn: School Nurse
Note: If your child’s next physical is not scheduled until later in the school year and they want to participate in a fall sport, please contact me directly.
We appreciate your cooperation. For specific Sports Physical questions, please contact me at 908-753-0330 or ecarroll@newmarkeducation.com
Your child's Medical History and treatment protocol is very important to the School Nurse and any other medical professional that may need access in case of an emergency. Please be sure to submit a 2025-26 Medication Release Form to the School Nurse if your child requires medication during the school day.
