About
In November 1774, the following advertisement appeared in the New York Journal or the General Advertiser:
This was one of the first steps taken to establish Newark Academy and in honor of this pivotal moment in NA’s history, we present Founders Day! On November 15, we are celebrating this history and encouraging community members to unite to support our current and future students so we can continue innovating for another 250 years.
Join us on November 15 for our Founders Day Challenge by making your gift to the Newark Academy Fund.
