Below are events going on in town. Please help the Bloomfield Public Schools celebrate Literacy Week!

Bloomfield Public Schools is hosting its inaugural Literacy Week - Monday, Feb. 27 to March 3.

With support from Town Hall, the Bloomfield Public Library, the Bloomfield Youth Department and key stakeholders, the intent of this is event is for the school district to amplify the importance of reading and literacy to the school community.

12 local ethnically diverse authors, including a district teacher and student, will speak to each of the seven schools throughout Literacy Week. They will discuss the vital role that the love of reading played in their lives.

"Reading is the foundation for academic learning and long-term success," said Dr. James Thompson, Jr., Bloomfield's Superintendent of Schools. "Our initial goal is to create a culture in which all students are reading on grade level by grade 3."

Literacy Week will coincide with the March 2nd National Read Across America Day. The district will also be participating in Read Across America.

It is a comprehensive plan, addressing all facets of life in Town, including land use, housing, open space, economic development, infrastructure, social services, transportation, culture, and much more.

The POCD is an important plan and process. It will let the Town review how things have changed over the past 10 years, assess where it stands, and determine if and how it needs to change in the future. The final Plan will be a policy guide to guide the Town’s policies, budgets, capital investments, and grant pursuits for the coming decade.
