Last Day of School - Have a Safe and Enjoyable Summer!

This past year, Bradley School was recognized as the top participating elementary school in the entire state of CT. We are ready to defend our title, but we need your help. Please see the attached letter from Mrs. Landolfi with more details.

We have once again partnered with the Bridgeport Sound Tigers for their summer reading incentive.

If students read 10 or more books over the summer they earn a free ticket to our opening night of the Sound Tigers on Saturday, Oct. 10th. Please see the attached form below for more information.

Please check out the really cool Unified Arts calendars for July and August. These are some great activities for the kids to do over the summer.

Sincerely,

Mrs. Conlon, Mrs. Green & Mrs. Zahara

Due to some technical difficulties, David Humphrey House was unable to live stream their virtual tour on Friday. Please enjoy the pre-recorded tour below.

The Derby Public Schools are interested in hearing about how the COVID-19 pandemic changed teaching and learning for our students by completing a brief survey. Your unique perspective of this crisis is invaluable and will help us create a first-person narrative about the way Derby Public School's students responded to a global crisis. By sharing your experiences, together we will provide insight for future generations as to how this life-changing event affected our community. Imagine! Future Derby Red Raiders will one day read about your experience as Derby Public Schools student. The Derby Public Library is collecting similar survey responses from residents 18 years and older which will be archived in the library's history section.

Students in grades 3 and up can access the survey here.

Thank you,

Dery Public Schools

This is certainly the most unique school year of my career. Our students, families, and teachers persevered through something no one could anticipate. I am very proud of everyone and if there was ever a summer that we all deserved a break, this is it.

Not only will I be encouraging all our students to practice their skills over the summer but also to enjoy spending time with family and friends (with proper social distancing).

I wish everyone a wonderful summer break, and more than ever, I hope it is safe and full of great health.

Sincerely,

Mr. Ciccarini
