Drop and Go Reminders
A reminder that when in the drop and go line, please do not pass cars. It is very dangerous as children and families are crossing and can not be easily seen.  Pull all the way up to the second crosswalk and drive on. Your child will be welcomed into the building safely.

School Site Council will meet this Thursday at 7pm in the Lowell library. All are welcome to come and learn more about our school and work on our goals for the upcoming school year.

Cyber Workshop for Parents
There will be a Navigating the Cyber World Parent Workshop on Wednesday of this week (1/27) at Watertown Middle School, 6:30 PM. More information here. 

Parent Resource Survey from Guidance Department
Research indicates that caretakers have the most significant and lasting impact on their children’s development.  For her year-long project, our intern from the Harvard Graduate School of Education, Lauren McDermott, is interested in creating short video clips of parenting strategies and resources to add to our toolboxes.  We have created a short survey to brainstorm and prioritize topics for our parent/guardians. The link to this anonymous survey is provided below. The survey should take no more than 5 minutes.

We appreciate any feedback that you may have about potential topics.  Please share any additional ideas and/or requests..  As always, we value your contribution and partnership!
