National Junior Honor Society
DSABC Mentor Program: Mentors are recruited from local businesses and the community to serve as positive adult role models to students who could benefit from a one-on-one relationship. Mentors meet with their mentees each week to work with the student at school, during the school day, for a minimum of one school year. The objective of the program is to improve academic performance, attendance, behavior, attitude toward school, and most importantly, self-esteem. The long-range goal is dropout prevention.
Extended Learning Program: Broadview offers an after school program for students in grades 6-8. The program provides homework help and extra curricular activities for students to participate in. Students are supervised by school personnel in the building. Parents must register their students at 49 Osborne St. for the extended learning program. Call at 203-797-4733 or visit the ELP website.
Youth Sports and Recreational Activities: The City of Danbury offers many opportunities for students to participate in sports and other recreational activities. We encourage your child to get involved in any extracurricular activities they are interested in.
National Junior Honor Society: The National Junior Honor Society is an international student organization that consists of chapters in middle schools. The NJHS was founded by the National Association of Secondary School Principals, and today has chapters in the United States, other U.S. territories, and around the world. Broadview's NJHS program participates in community service in the Broadview and Danbury Public School Community. For more information contact the chapter adviser Ms. Laskowska
EXCEL Program: The Western Connecticut State University Excel Program is an opportunity for middle school students, in grades 7 and 8, to develop their academic potential and achieve their goal of admission into a post-secondary educational program upon completion of high school.
