Our Vision | BPS Forward

A Stronger Learning System for Branford

Working with Teton Architects, Branford Public Schools conducted a comprehensive, data-driven process that included:

In-depth facility and site assessments
Evaluation of current educational programming

Collaborative workshops with students, teachers, families, and community members

The result is a 15-year Facilities Master Plan paired with educational recommendations that help the district:

Re-imagine how space is used to support learning
Extend learning beyond traditional classroom walls
Improve efficiency and effectiveness across the system
Prepare for future educational needs as enrollment and standards evolve

The goal is not change for its own sake, but a stronger, more adaptable educational system—one that empowers students during their time in Branford and beyond.

BPS Forward is grounded in a simple idea: When learning environments, educational programs, and resources are thoughtfully aligned, students thrive.
