Dear Parents and Guardians:

Please allow me to share a few updates:

•  Community Substance Abuse Prevention Forum  The Needham Coalition for
Substance Abuse Prevention will host a panel presentation and discussion
on substance abuse, decision making, and the adolescent brain.  The forum
will feature Marissa Silveri, Ph.D. from Harvard Medical School and
Needham educators, leaders, and students who will share ideas, insights,
and concerns about risky youth behaviors.  The forum will begin tomorrow
at 7:00 p.m. Thursday, March 10, 2011 at Broadmeadow.  For more

•  School Committee Open House  The School Committee will hold its annual
spring Open House in the library at High Rock School from 9:00 until 10:30
a.m. on Saturday, March 26, 2011.  This is an informal opportunity for
parents, community members, students, and staff to meet members of the
School Committee and share ideas, concerns, and ask questions.  Please
stop by and enjoy a cup of coffee and conversation with your School
Committee!
