It is our mission to ensure that all students acquire the knowledge, character and 21st-century skills to succeed through high-quality learning experiences and community partnerships within a culture of diversity and respect. 

Our aim is to be one of the more dynamic school districts in the region.

We will celebrate a diverse student population who are filled with vivid hopes, dreams and wishes for their futures. Our students dive deep into the extra-curricular offerings that we have, broadly participating in everything from athletics to the performing arts. 

Our community partnerships are strong and they recognize the importance of their contributions to making the Stratford Public Schools one of the best in the area. For this, we are appreciative. Additionally, we receive outstanding support from the Stratford Board of Education as well as The Stratford Town Council, and the Mayor’s office.
