It is with great anticipation that I write this article as we prepare for the start of the 2020-2021 school year. I would like to take this opportunity to thank the community of Suffield for its continued investment in the education and welfare of our children.

Surely, we all sympathize with the very difficult position in which our schools are finding themselves during the Coronavirus outbreak, as they try to make decisions about the upcoming academic year.
The campus at Suffield Academy is a well-maintained historic site on our Main Street, so it is no surprise to learn that behind the scenes the school has been working steadily for many years to improve its use of natural resources, reduce its carbon footprint, and thus become more environmentally friendly.
The Suffield Athletic Hall of Fame is pleased to recognize Lilia Rzecinski and Stephen Sattan as the recipients of their 2020 scholarships.
Every year, in most school districts, there is a day that is given to celebrating the 13 year journey of learning and academic achievement with an age old rite of passage—graduation. Graduation in Suffield has always been about graduates marching out onto the athletic field at the high school to Pomp and Circumstance in white and blue caps and gowns.
During the last week in May and first week in June, the teachers at Suffield Cooperative Preschool made some special visits bringing graduation caps, diplomas and gifts to send off their 15 students, who will be moving on to kindergarten next year.
You may have seen an eye-catching vehicle rolling around town on Thursday, May 28. For twenty-one of Conway’s Kiddie Kollege preschool students and their families, it was a day they will never forget!
Congratulations to Suffield High School’s Valedictorian Vansh Patel and Salutatorian Gabriella Santaniello.
May 20 marked the first of its kind virtual award ceremony for the Suffield Agriscience FFA chapter. It is traditionally a bittersweet ceremony, as it is the last official meeting the chapter officers and chapter holds for the year.
