As the holiday season approaches, it’s a wonderful time to reflect on the innovation and achievement taking place in Suffield Public Schools.
This spring, we are excited to lead a group of Suffield High School students on an educational adventure of a lifetime.
On October 1, the Suffield Rotary honored two Suffield High School seniors at the Suffield Country Club.
A burst of color and community spirit lit up the fields of McAlister Intermediate School on a sunny Saturday morning in October as students, families, and staff came together for the Suffield Elementary PTO’s first ever Color Run.
As we move through the fall season, the Suffield Board of Education extends our gratitude to the students, families, educators, and staff who make our schools such special places to learn and grow.
Installed in 2020, the original array spans 1.94 acres and comprises 1,764 panels, each with a capacity of 340 watts.
In 1966, the Suffield Regional Vocational Agriculture Program received its official state charter, marking the establishment of the Suffield Regional Future Farmers of America Chapter.
For Suffield Teacher of the Year, Heather Goldstein, it was a combination of job devotion, perseverance and the enduring influence of a former awardee that helped make her achievement possible. “I love, absolutely love working here in Suffield. It’s like my second home,” she said.

This year marked her fifth nomination for Teacher of the Year and her third selection as a building finalist, one step away from earning the award.
The new school year is well underway, and the energy in our schools is a reflection of the excitement that comes with fall. Our team members and students are diving into learning, exploring new connections, and taking advantage of all that Suffield Publi Schools has to offer.National Bullying Prevention MonthOctober is National Bullying Prevention Month, a reminder for all of us to focus on creating schools where every student feels safe and valued. In Suffield, this commitment shows up through the Kindness Matters movement, created in memory of Meghan Voisine. The program gives students the chance to lead projects that spread compassion and inclusion in everyday ways. This year, the district incorporated a Kindness Statement into each school’s handbook to reinforce our commitment to a learning environment where hurtful behavior, words or actions of any kind are not welcome.
