We will be offering a free four-week Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) group geared towards middle school students which will focus on maintaining healthy relationships and managing conflict in friendships. These 30-minute sessions will be led by a clinician from Behavioral Health Network and will run during the school day. Caregiver consent is required, so please reach out Mrs. Margolis (tmargolis@nbschools.org) before 5/20 to enroll your child or to ask any questions.

Our homework club meets Tuesday and Thursday after school. If your student needs extra support our teachers stay after school almost everyday. In addition, we have started our homework club (see picture above). Contact Ms. Pelissier or myself for more details. All students are welcome! Mr. Rigney and Ms. Hanson stay after school most Thursdays for extra math support. Our goal is always 100% of our students pass 100% of their classes.
We also have late bus transportation for students who take the bus to school.

If your family is experiencing difficulties at home, we would like to provide additional support at school. We understand that you are not always able to share details and that is okay.

If your child is coming to school after a difficult night, morning, or weekend, please email me “Handle With Care” with your child’s first and last name. Nothing else will be asked. I will then reach out to their teachers to share that your child may need extra help and patience during the day.

If it would be helpful for the school adjustment counselor to reach out to your child and/or family directly, please do not hesitate to contact me.
