Friday Flyers! 1/10/25
Friday Flyers! Bloomfield Elementary School January 10, 2025 Message from the Principal Happy New Year Bloomfield families! It has been a great week back, even with the chilly weather. This week, our teachers dedicated time to reviewing classroom and school-wide expectations through Interactive Modeling. As part of the Responsive Classroom approach, interactive modeling is a strategy for teaching a skill, routine, or procedure in a specific way. The technique combines modeling, noticing, and reinforcement that gives students a clear picture of what is expected, helps them notice important details, and allows them to immediately practice and receive feedback from their teacher. We greatly appreciate your continued support at home in reinforcing the importance of following school expectations—in the classroom, on the bus, in the cafeteria, and throughout all areas of school life and beyond. Below are the social and emotional areas of focus we promote, along with our school-wide expectations: Kindness: Emphasizing empathy and understanding. Growth Mindset: Encouraging perseverance and learning from challenges. Safe Choices: Prioritizing safety in all actions and in all areas of our school campus and beyond. BES school-wide expectations: Being respectful, being responsible, and being problem solvers. Community Events The flyers below have been added as attachments as well Bloomfield Rotary Lunch Menu January 13-17 Monday- Popcorn Chicken Tuesday- Pork or Beef Nachos Wednesday- Macaroni & Cheese Thursday- Pizza Slice Friday- Brunch for Lunch

Capital Improvement Project
Dear Families, As you know, the Bloomfield Community will be voting on a proposed Capital Improvement Project on Tuesday, December 17, 2024, from 8:00 AM – 8:00 PM in the Middle/High School LGI (near the Athletic Entrance). As a district, we have been working to put out as much information on this project as we can. Our goal is to be transparent with information, and available for any questions that you may have. The major themes of the proposed project include Health and Safety , Operations and Efficiencies, and Student Programs . The District’s Facilities Committee, made up of members of the community, school staff, school administrators, architects, and construction professionals has been working on, and discussing this project for the past two years. This group spent many hours reviewing and discussing the needs of the district and worked hard to ensure we were able to present the best project possible while considering both cost and needs. One of the major items included in this project is the relocation of our current bus garage. The Facilities Committee strongly believed that relocating the bus garage would make our Middle/High School campus safer, and would provide us a facility that could better meet our needs as we service our buses. The proposed plan also calls for us to then utilize the current bus garage as a student learning space where we could offer Career and Technical Education programs through BOCES. This would involve the district leasing the space to BOCES, which would create a revenue stream for the district. Other items included in the project include necessary HVAC work and window hardware replacements, replacing an aging boiler, upgrading safety features in our buildings, and installing turf on the infields of our upper baseball and softball fields. Adding turf to these fields would allow our student athletes and community groups greater access to those fields, and would allow us to maximize time on the fields given the challenges that spring weather presents. Our communication efforts around this project have included an open house at the current garage so that the community could see the issues with the current garage first hand, the mailing of an informational newsletter, the release of an informational video about the project, posting information on our website (including the answers to Frequently Asked Questions), hosting a public hearing about the project, and answering any and all questions that have been asked. We want to express our sincere appreciation to those who attended the open house at the bus garage as well as to those who have taken the time to reach out with specific questions. We also want to thank all those who attended the public hearing for the Capital Improvement Project on Monday night. Their presence and participation was appreciated. We especially want to thank those who shared their views and asked questions in a respectful and constructive manner. It is through this kind of engagement that we can work together to make informed decisions that benefit everyone in our district. Those who attended the meeting on Monday demonstrated that while we may have differing opinions and views as a community, Bloomfield continues to remain a place where we can share those differing views respectfully. While anyone is always welcome to reach out with questions via email or by calling our District Office, we also wanted to offer one more in-person opportunity for community members to ask questions about the project. On Monday, December 16, the District will be hosting a drop-in opportunity for members of the community to come and ask questions they may have. This will be an informal event from 5:30 pm to 6:30 pm in the Middle/High School Large Group Instruction Room. While we do not have a formal presentation planned on Monday night, we do want to be sure that community members have the opportunity to speak with members of the Facilities Committee and ask any questions they still may have. The event will end at 6:30 PM to allow people to attend the Middle/High School Jazz Concert in the PAC at 7:00 PM. Please know that our goal is to continue to foster a positive and supportive environment where open communication and mutual respect guide our efforts to strengthen the school district and community we all care so deeply about. I would encourage those with questions, or those who would like more information on this project, to please reach out directly to us, or to plan to attend the drop-in event on Monday. It took the Facilities Committee two years before we were ready to present this project to the community. During those two years we had a great deal of dialogue around the scope of the project in an effort to ensure it was the best project we could bring forward. We are happy to answer any questions you may have and we are happy to provide any information you need to make an informed decision on the project. As a reminder the Capital Improvement Project Vote is scheduled for Tuesday, December 17th from 8:00 am to 8:00 pm in the Large Group Instruction Room at the Middle/High School. I would encourage all community members who are eligible to vote to come out and do so on Tuesday. Thank you for your ongoing support. Sincerely, Andy Doell adoell@bloomfieldcsd.org
