Welcome Public Education Supporters!
The Newport News Education Association (NNEA) consists of school employees who are frontline experts at educating and caring for the children we love. The NNEA is fighting for an educational system that exceeds what the community needs and places Newport News Public Schools students at the forefront of the Commonwealth in every way. As essential partners, we will collaborate with district leadership to accomplish mutually agreed-upon strategic goals and objectives. The right to bargain for a competitive contract is essential to recruit and retain quality employees.
