NEXT PTO MEETING ON 3/11/2010, 7:30-9:00 PM: ADDRESSING HURTFUL OR BULLYING BEHAVIOR

Join principal Dave Castelline and Amy Ambramovitz, LICSW, for a discussion of how teachers engage students to reinforce accepting and respectful behavior and how we as parents can identify and respond to hurtful or bullying behavior when it occurs.

UNDERWOOD SCHOOL COUNCIL - SURVEY

The Underwood School Council is interested in learning how families are experiencing school. In order to have a better understanding of parents’ attitudes and opinions we have created an online parent survey.  Please take 5-10 minutes to answer the questions. You can go directly to the survey by clicking on the following link: http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/2TWHV6F.

WINTER SAFETY - DROP OFF AND PICK UP

It is critical in the winter months to adhere to the signs at the corner of Elmwood and Eldredge Streets that restrict parking close to this corner. The "No Parking Here To Corner" signs are designed to keep this area open so that the buses can make the turn onto Eldredge Street. If cars are parked in this restricted zone the buses will not be able to get to school causing delays for our students and for children at other schools.
