Good afternoon GEMS Families,

We would like to inform you of an incident that occurred at dismissal today involving several middle school students who were handling a powdery substance contained in a clear capsule found in a classroom. School and district staff immediately responded and investigated the situation. The substance was identified as malic acid, a non-toxic material from our science kits. As a precaution, we contacted Poison Control, who confirmed that the substance is non-toxic. They advised that anyone who came into contact with it wash their hands thoroughly with warm, soapy water. Poison Control also indicated that, if ingested or touched, malic acid could cause mild irritation. We encourage families to contact their child's medical provider with any further questions or concerns.

The school has taken safety measures to prevent this from happening again in the future. Additionally, we will be following up with middle school students and staff tomorrow to further enforce the safety precautions in place.

Thank you for your partnership as we continue to prioritize the safety and well-being of our students.

Last night, Bloomfield Public Schools bid a heartfelt farewell to the Global Experience Magnet School (GEMS) alongside Board of Education members, current and former staff, students, families, and community supporters. We would like to thank everyone who came out to honor the GEMS legacy. The event provided an opportunity for attendees to share memories and reflect on what the school meant to them. Through each story shared, it was evident that GEMS has left a lasting impact on those who walked its hallways, experienced its strong sense of community, and participated in the international travel experiences that were a hallmark of its curriculum.

Good morning,
Starting tomorrow students in grades 7 and 8 will begin the State of CT's annual testing called Smarter Balanced Assessments. Students will be taking assessments for both math and ela this week. If a student is absent or arrives late, they will make up their assessments upon return. We ask that students arrive on time with charged chromebooks ready for testing. We appreciate your support in helping your child to be prepared each day by getting a good night's sleep and a healthy breakfast ready to do their best.

Student belongings such as phones, smartwatches, backpacks, etc will not be allowed in test rooms. Students must leave all belongings in their lockers for the duration of testing. Disruptions may result in the removal from the testing environment and may have impact on your student's testing results. If you have any questions please don't hesitate to contact me.
