My Schools Newark is hosting a school fair on Saturday, December 03, 2022 at the Prudential Center from 10 a.m. – 2 p.m. The fair is being provided to assist Newark families planning for their child to attend a Newark school for the 2023-24 school year.
Parents can register for this free event here (registration is recommended in advance).
“We are so excited to welcome parents and families to the Prudential Center for this school fair,” shared Octavia Thompson, the project manager for My Schools Newark.
“My Schools Newark’s mission is to ensure information and opportunities about all Newark schools are proactively shared with Newark parents, so they are provided with the needed tools to make the best education decision for their families,” Thompson said. “We invite families to come enjoy free food, parking, and giveaways, and to even enjoy the holiday tree lighting across the street afterwards at Mulberry Commons!”
This weekend’s in-person fair builds on other successful fairs hosted by My Schools Newark. In February, My Schools Newark hosted a virtual school fair to assist families during the Newark Enrolls application period, including representatives from over 20 schools from the district, charter, and pre-k sectors in Newark. In May, more than 300 parents attended the first in-person fair held since the pandemic hit, at an outdoor fair in Military Park.
In 2021, My Schools Newark launched as an initiative to provide Newark parents with a centralized suite of service-oriented resources that showcase needed information for every school in Newark.
