Newport-Mesa Unified School District 
Community Newsletter, August 2016
A quarterly publication of the Newport-Mesa Unified School District

With the start of the school year just around the corner, we take this time to thank the wonderful communities that we serve within the Newport-Mesa Unified School District (NMUSD). We truly value our relationships with the Costa Mesa and Newport Beach communities. A strong partnership exists between the leadership of both cities as we continue to collaborate on shared projects and work together in meeting the needs of our shared constituencies. With that goal in mind, NMUSD is launching a quarterly community newsletter. The purpose of the newsletter will be to share information with community members to keep abreast of our successes, challenges and issues that shape our work and mission to produce contributing members of a 21st Century society and economy. We hope that you look forward to receiving our communication and that the information contained within the publication provides you a window into the amazing accomplishments of our students and our district.
