Join us as we learn about a grant opportunity that would provide Laurel Literacy Academy and the Carmen Arace building with School Based Health Centers that are coordinated, culturally sensitive and developmentally appropriate. The Centers would provide primary care, dental care, social/emotional behavioral health services, and health education, leading to increased access to these valuable resources for our Bloomfield students.
We invite you to attend this virtual meeting and learn with us as we explore this opportunity. Visit our website, under "Events" for more information.

Please support Bloomfield Public Schools in donating hats, gloves, and scarves!


CAIS SOAR students investigated why people migrated to Connecticut at the CT Museum of Culture and History. They enjoyed hands-on simulations and dove deep with critical thinking about all the reasons people from a variety of cultures would migrate to our state throughout different time periods, while building investigative research skills with primary source materials.
They were complimented by museum staff for their focus and level of engagement!

Bloomfield Public Schools will be sharing the warmth this winter by supporting the community. Each school has selected an organization and will be donating items of warmth.
CAIS will be collecting new hats, gloves and scarves from January 16th-February 14th. Donations will support South Park Inn Family Shelter
