Student Enrollment

The Newport School District is kicking off the 2024-25 school year with our NEW Student Information System, Alma.   Alma is a comprehensive web-based student information system designed to streamline and enhance the management of student data and facilitate effective communication among school administrators, teachers, parents, and students. Alma provides a user-friendly interface for parents to monitor their child's academic progress in real time. This allows parents to stay informed about their child's performance, upcoming assignments, and school events without waiting for periodic reports.
