Board of Education of The Brooklyn Schools

The Brooklyn School system provides a pre-kindergarten through grade eight program and is governed by a six member Board of Education. Tracing its origins back to the early days of the 20th century when the town had nine district schools, The Brooklyn School today is a centralized district, located on Gorman Road, and provides a comprehensive program to approximately 1,000 students. In addition, Brooklyn sends approximately 360 students to designated high schools, Killingly High School in Danielson and Woodstock Academy in Woodstock, and 10-15 to other high schools. Thirty to forty students each year attend the Harvard H. Ellis Technical School.
The Board of Education directs the operation of the school system through an active committee structure and, when appropriate, involves members of the school staff and community.
