As a reminder, the purpose of the Bedford Public Schools Superintendent Update is to keep the community informed of the progress of our students, key school committee/district/community decisions, and other important issues/events related to the district or the larger Bedford/HAFB/METCO communities as a whole. School specific information is shared in each school's respective newsletter. In 2025-2026, after initial start-of-school updates, Superintendent Updates will typically be sent on Friday afternoons about twice a month, though occasional special updates may also be sent. The anticipated publication schedule and full details can be found at Superintendent Update Guidelines.
