The Newton Schools Foundation was pleased to accept a donation of $5,000 from the Rockland Trust Charitable Foundation. The donation will support NSF's effort to build a more robust teaching and learning environment that will enable Newton's students to flourish as life-long learners who are critical thinkers and civic-minded productive citizens.
