Schools
The New Fairfield Public Schools Systems includes 4 schools: Consolidated School, Meeting House Hill School (Under renovation as of late 2012), New Fairfield Middle School and New Fairfield High School. The Middle School and High School are connected to one another. The Middle School got a new library called "Cyberspace." They call it that because the students here in the Middle School do a new program called 1 to 1 computing. The students use computers in almost every class they have. This program consists of 6 and 7 graders. Recent updates to Meeting House Hill School include a new gym with brand new sports bleachers and significant renovations to every other part of the school. This renovation project started in 2010 and is going to end in 2013. In 2010 the demolition started with completely knocking down an entire wing. What replaced that was the "500 Wing" or the new 5th Grade wing. Before the 500 wing the Butler wing was full of 4th graders.

Famous quotes containing the word schools:
“The schools begin with what they call the elements, and where do they end?”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“In truth, the legitimate contention is, not of one age or school of literary art against another, but of all successive schools alike, against the stupidity which is dead to the substance, and the vulgarity which is dead to form.”
—Walter Pater (1839–1894)
“Our good schools today are much better than the best schools of yesterday. When I was your age and a pupil in school, our teachers were our enemies.
Can any thing ... be more painful to a friendly mind, than a necessity of communicating disagreeable intelligence? Indeed it is sometimes difficult to determine, whether the relator or the receiver of evil tidings is most to be pitied.”
—Frances Burney (1752–1840)
