PTC Membership

The Saxe PTC is a network of volunteers dedicated to working together with the faculty, staff, and students at Saxe. Our goal is to make the middle school experience rewarding for all by supporting events, online initiatives, and fundraising efforts for Saxe. We’d love to count you among us. No experience is necessary, and there are no extra to-dos. Memberships are annual, and the new school year means new memberships. For $30, you’ll gain access to our online school directory for 2024-25. Click HERE to join the PTC today.

Connecticut State Law requires ALL students to have a physical exam during sixth grade. The CT Health Assessment form needs to be on file in the nurses office by the last day of 6th grade. We accept physicals dated from June 1, 2023. 

Upon completion of the exam, please email or bring the completed CT health assessment record to the lower division health office. Please contact your school nurse, Joelle Graham, with any questions. She can be reached at joelle.graham@ncps-k12.org or at (203) 594-4526.

The New Canaan Behavioral Health Alliance (a coalition of over 30 local organizations dedicated to increasing community awareness of behavioral health resources) is urging all residents 18 years and older to participate in a five-minute Community Health & Well-Being survey, running from October 1-31. This anonymous survey will gather comprehensive insights from residents that will guide decisions and resources impacting our community's health, mental health, and well-being. Plus, widespread participation could help unlock additional funding for local behavioral health services. Let’s work together to ensure every voice counts in building a healthier, stronger New Canaan! Take the survey online at www.newcanaanbha.org.
