We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

My overall experience at Bloomfield was not bad for the most part. I met a lot of good people. However, when I attended there was bullying, fights, and teachers who didn't care who passed. On the contrary, there were teachers that would help you navigate your high school experience and help you get to the next steps. Overall, like many high schools it's all about finding the right people.

Being homeschooled all of my life, Bloomfield High School was the first public school that I had ever attended. The staff and faculty were very welcoming and supportive of my journey to assimilating into school life.

The facilities are dilapidated, with leaking ceilings and broken desks. The cafeteria food is barely edible,...

My child attended Bloomfield High School, did well and is now on her way to a competitive university. Bloomfield High school gives access to an excellent education.
