New Bedford Public Schools

Join Us! New Bedford Public Schools and the NBEA are partnering to get your input and feedback to incorporate into our Strategic Plan – preparing our student’s future as it relates to the Student Opportunity Act.

City Councilor Joe Lopes was a special guest of Ms. Perry’s 5th Grade class at Lincoln School to discuss the plastic bag ordinance. Students had researched the issue and had multiple questions (both pro & con) for the Ward 6 Councilor, who explained how the deliberative process works in the making of a law!

New Bedford Public Schools will be hosting a Staff Recruitment Fair on Saturday, March 21st, at Keith Middle School!

During this vacation week, a group of 75 students from NBPS’ three middle schools are engaged in a fast-paced schedule “equivalent to an additional month of learning in this one week!” For that reason it is fittingly called the Acceleration Academy, which is being held at New Bedford High School for the first time.

Kindergarten Registration is open for children born on or before August 31, 2015. Please call The Family Welcome Center to schedule your registration appointment today!

These NBPS teachers have been awarded the Sontag Prize by DESE! They attended professional development at Harvard University in preparation to teach during the Acceleration Academies for middle school students, being held this week and April vacation.

Congratulations to Kennedy Johnson for throwing 37’11” in the shot put, becoming the Division 1 State Champion!

Congratulations to February’s unsuspecting Employee Spotlights: Mr. Doug Motta & Mrs. Diana Barboza!
