Bloomfield Public Schools has been busy all week showing all of our staff members just how much we appreciate everything they do on behalf of Bloomfield students. We chose the week of May 5th-9th because it's National Teacher Appreciation Week! If you see one of our teachers, or any of the supporting staff members that make our schools and district great, please thank them for all they do!

Hello, Metacomet Families. Today, Wednesday, May 7, we noticed that some of our students came in from recess with ticks on them. We will have our students stay inside for recess for the rest of the week. We have alerted our facilities department and they will work on getting the grass cut and plans to eliminate the ticks. I will make sure that our students will not go outside in the fields until the tick problem is resolved. I am sorry for this problem.

Good evening, Metacomet Families. As you are aware, Metacomet was closed on Friday, March 7 due to a power outage. The district has determined that our make up day will be on Wednesday, May 21. This will be an early release day and students will be dismissed at 1:25 pm. Thank you!
