In support of our community and the Faye family, please stand in solidarity with one another. May 23rd will be “Newton Strong Day” in honor of Newton student Lexi Faye who died tragically this past Saturday and her three classmates Anthony Burke, Maria Fiore and Nick Chavarria who are still recovering from injuries from the same crash. We are #newtonstrong!
