High Five Friday 🎅❄️ Friday’s High Five Friday was one to remember. Students were greeted by Santa, the Abominable Snowman, the Grinch, and representatives from NPPD—an outstanding way to wrap up the first semester. Santa had students search for their names on the naughty and nice list and even brought in local law enforcement to help double-check the results. Smiles, laughter, and high fives all around made for a memorable start to the day and a strong finish to the semester. Thank you to everyone who helped make it special for our students.

Mr. Rowan Gieselman was the first semester Positive Behavior winner. Congratulations! Keep up the good work!

Just a reminder the next two days of schools are early outs. The elementary will be dismissed at 2:35pm. Thank you and have a Merry Christmas!

As we jingle our way to the end of first semester and prep for semester tests, our High School Student Council decided to spread a little holiday cheer by giving back to every student! 🎁 A HUGE thank you to Mrs. Risor and Mrs. Osten for planning, preparing, and wrapping all 131 generous gifts (yes, 131!) — with a few extra surprises donated by members of our amazing community. Nothing says the season like kindness and school spirit! ❤️

Another girls varsity game another girls varsity win this time over the Wakefield Lady Trojans! Way to go ladies!

At last night’s school board meeting, Superintendent Todd Strom announced that he will not be renewing his contract for the 2025–2026 school year as he prepares for retirement.

The Bloomfield Community Schools Board of Education has selected NASB to assist with the superintendent search process. We are committed to keeping our staff, families, and community informed as the search progresses and will share updates as they become available.

We extend our sincere gratitude and appreciation to Mr. Strom for his years of service, leadership, and dedication to Bloomfield Community Schools. We thank him for the work he has done on behalf of our students, staff, and community, and we wish him nothing but the best in his well-earned retirement.
