As part of our continuing efforts to assess and deal with bullying, the Northbridge Public School District is again surveying students, staff, and parents on bullying issues that may exist in our schools. The parent survey is now available through this link.

The Northbridge Education Foundation (NEF) invites you to honor those educators and staff members who have made or are currently making a difference in your children’s lives by participating in the NEF Teacher and Staff Recognition Program. Make a tax-deductible donation to NEF in a teacher/staff member’s name and you will both thank that educator for a job well done AND help fund NEF programs that foster innovation and excellence in teaching throughout the district.

Join the Northbridge Coalition for a Community Building program on May 23rd at 7:00.  Special guest speaker is Jim Verdone, high school music teacher.  See the attached flyer for more details.

For middle and high school parents: The Northbridge Public School District has been working with the Uxbridge School District and Family Continuity Program to develop a School-Based Mental Health Program at Northbridge High School.  This program would allow parents to sign up their high school students to receive in-school counseling services.  We eventually hope to also develop a School-Based Health Center that would provide simple medical services to high school students. We are surveying parents to document the need for these two services as part of our grant process.  This short survey can be accessed using the Link below.
