Newbery is a K2-5th grade school that offers parents and students a quality experience. Newbery has a healthy PTSA and volunteer base with good presence within the school. The teachers are qualified, approachable and kind. The district is constantly reviewing their approach to curriculum and looking for ways to improve. Wenatchee is successfully integrating students from a wide range of social-economic backgrounds and creating a sense of family within the classroom. Newbery students may have a higher opportunity for after-school enrichment due to their great PTSA. Our family has been very pleased with the quality of instruction and overall tone of the school.

We test kids at the end of the year and beginning. Kids that don't keep up during the summer take a giant step backwards. If our kids do complain about homework, we ask them,"Do you want to work for a company, or own the company?"

No. Let the children have a break. Let their minds focus on being children. They'll have plenty of homework when they go back to school. I would not even consider enforceing summer homework for my children. They need stress free playtime.

Yes. Of course summer is for fun however they can take a brake from homework 2 weeks or so, not the whole summer. If you teach a child the importance of learing they will enjoy the homework even in the summer.
