Office of Communications: Sharing Our Story

At Newark Central School District, we believe in celebrating the achievements, creativity, and community spirit that define our schools. The Office of Communications plays a vital role in connecting our district with families, staff, and the broader community by sharing the stories that matter most.

Through our website, social media platforms (Facebook, X, Instagram, and YouTube), news releases, and community presentations, we highlight the many ways our students and staff are preparing for life beyond graduation.

Promoting Our Schools

The Office of Communications is dedicated to showcasing:

  • Student and staff achievements
  • Innovative classroom projects
  • Community partnerships
  • Special events and district-wide initiatives

We collaborate with local media to promote stories of interest and provide photography, video, and written content to bring these moments to life.

To request coverage or submit a story idea:

  • Contact us at least 2–3 weeks in advance of your event.
  • Include key details: who, what, when, where, and why.
  • Email Brenda Pittman (District Public Relations Coordinator) or Kyle Bliek (Communications Coordinator & Webmaster).

Please note: While we strive to cover as many events as possible, publication is not guaranteed.
