Newport Rotary President Mark Eadie has announced that Clara’s Closet is the 2022-23 Newport Rotary major project. It seeks to provide Newport Elementary School teachers with teacher and classroom supplies which may not be provided by the school system. Clara’s Closet will be located in the NES teacher resource room and will be available for the Fall 2022 and Spring 2023 semesters. Teacher surveys are being used to target the appropriate supplies. Start-up and mid-year needs are being provided.
The project is named in memory of Clara Wall, “Miss Clara”, a career third-grade teacher at Newport Elementary (1960s-1980s) whose husband, son and daughter-in-law were all Newport Rotarians.
