Black Rock School

A Nuturing Community Where Childen Are Primary!

Black Rock Elementary School is a Pre-Kindergarten to Grade 3 school of approximately 250 students that is nestled within the lovely hills of Litchfield County. We actively support students in their learning, academic and social development. We are fortunate to have a knowledgeable, dedicated staff that supports our students in fostering a positive collaboration with a wonderful parent base. Each year, our school selects goals for our own emphasis on learning. It also allowed us to focus our energies towards a common purpose and establish a cooperative, community working together for student success. Our goals for the 2023-2024 school year are:


  • Improve student learning outcomes in language arts and mathematics
  • Engage in continuous professional growth and improvement
  • Partner with parents and the community at large in supporting the children of Thomaston


The purpose of our goals is to enhance the learning experience for all students at Black Rock School. It also allows us to direct our energies towards a common goal and establish a cooperative community working together for student success.

Principal's Message


Dear Black Rock School Community,

      Welcome back for the 2024-2025 school year! We’ve been working hard over the summer with great anticipation for the return of our wonderful students. Our building looks fantastic and our teachers are hard at work preparing great experiences for the children.

     We are excited to welcome the new staff members joining our outstanding faculty. Our team has worked hard to develop new programming and improve our existing initiatives. We can’t wait to share all the great things we have in store with our students, parents, and the community!

      Each week, we communicate with our parent community with important school information and updates on our programs and offerings. I welcome the opportunity to communicate with all community members regarding your questions, concerns, or suggestions on how we can best serve the children of Thomaston.

     This is going to be a great year at Black Rock School. Enjoy the autumn season!

 


Sincerely,

 Jonathan Kozlak

 Principal
