The Connecticut Association of Schools has designated Suffield Middle School as a middle school with “Exemplary Teaming Practices”
We join six other middle schools in the state for this recognition including Albert D. Griswold Middle School, Canton Middle School, Chippens Hill Middle School, Dodd Middle School, Mansfield Middle School and Mystic Middle School.
To achieve this recognition, the middle school staff undertook an extensive self-assessment regarding their use and implementation of curriculum integration, collaborative decision-making, parent and community involvement and flexible grouping and scheduling. We were visited by a team from CAS in January who verified and validated our self-assessment. We now have a three- year “exemplary practices” designation from CAS as a school that utilizes “exemplary teaming practices” and serve as a model for other schools wishing to improve.
