"Dutch Broadway Pride!"

Message from the Principal

Greetings,

Dutch Broadway School, located in the vibrant community of Elmont, New York, is more than just a place of learning - it’s a hub of opportunity, diversity, and academic excellence. At Dutch Broadway, we are committed to providing a nurturing and inclusive environment where students thrive. With a dedicated team of educators, innovative programs, and a strong sense of community, we’re shaping the future leaders of tomorrow.

In addition to receiving physical education, art, music, literacy, and library, our students also have an opportunity to participate in programs that enrich the general curriculum, including Model UN, Math Olympiads, Student Council, Art Club, Chorus, Band, Orchestra, and Lego Robotics. Kindergarten – sixth-grade students can also participate in after-school clubs that help develop their science, technology, engineering, and art skills. Students engage in activities in the school’s Science and STEAM Labs.

In keeping with the district’s mission to “Educate the Whole Child,” Dutch Broadway prides itself on implementing its Social Emotional Learning initiative, which provides students with daily mindfulness breathing techniques, child yoga exercises, and monthly themed activities. These resources will provide students with an array of strategies and coping skills.

A key factor to student success is the partnership between home and school. To enhance communication between all stakeholders, the Elmont Union Free School District has provided our families with the following resources:

The Remind app – your child’s teacher will provide detailed information on how you can join your child(ren)’s class. This feature will allow teachers and parents to communicate directly with one another.
The Elmont District app – download the Elmont Union Free School District from your favorite app store. When installed, click on the tool icon and check off Dutch Broadway. You will receive all notifications sent by the school.
The Elmont UFSD website – www.elmontschools.org – Visit the website to receive the most up-to-date information throughout the school year.
The Dutch Broadway Virtual Backpack – a virtual hub where you can find all letters and flyers shared by the school.
Blackboard Connect – a pre-recorded voice call sent to the phone number on file with the school. We ask that your contact information be updated accordingly.
