New Bedford - MA Four New Bedford elementary schools — DeValles, Congdon, Hathaway, and Jacobs will now work with Playworks, an organization that provides training for teachers and students. The program is seen to have countless benefits and teach the kids kind and safe play habits...

Ten elementary schools across New Bedford took part in "High-Five Friday" this morning, with off-duty police officers visiting the schools to give high-fives and have conversations with students. The program had drawn controversy in Northampton, where the program was canceled because opponents felt it made some students who might be illegal immigrants or had bad experiences with law enfo

The New Bedford City Council approved $18.1 million in funding for accelerated repair projects at four city elementary schools during Tuesday night's meeting.

Parents may have noticed this over the years, but now a report out of Rhode Island says elementary schools are supporting gender stereotypes through activities for students.
