New River Primary

Dear New River Primary Panther Families, It is hard to believe we will start school this coming week. I wanted to let you know that on Thursday and Friday we will be dismissing 30 minutes early. This means students will be leaving the school on buses at 3 PM and car rider will start at 3 PM parents please remember do not arrive more than 15 minutes before dismissal time so the earliest you should arrive to pick up your child in the car ride lane is 2:45. On regular school days the earliest you should arrive is 3:15 PM . Drop off time is 8:05 to 8:40 AM. Thank you for your help and understanding as we start the 2026-2027 school year. We look forward to seeing your children. Sincerely, Lee R. Jones Principal

Dear Staff, This is a reminder we have orientation tomorrow evening. I am sharing this message on behalf of Mr. Walker PTA chair and officers. As we welcome families to orientation tomorrow, I’d like to ask for your help in promoting our PTA. Before parents leave your classroom, please encourage them to stop by the PTA table in the hallway to learn more about membership, volunteer opportunities, and the events we have planned for this school year. A simple reminder from you can make a huge difference in helping us grow our membership and build strong family involvement. The more families we have engaged, the more we can do to support our students, staff, and school.

Job postings are current until 11/7/26.
