Welcome to the new website for the Block Island School and New Shoreham School Department. While now up and running, it remains a work in progress, so some sections are not yet operational. Our focus is to get needed information to the community as easily as possible; so you’ll see documents, forms, and handbooks here as well as schedules and contact information. We hope you find it useful and improving as time goes on.
Our website is volunteer-developed and it is essential to give a tremendous thank you to Howell Conant, who made it happen. His combination of community spirit, energy, and expertise came together in a way that exemplifies Block Island’s community values. His structure for this site provides a platform through which our school can increase its ability to communicate and interact with the community; a way for teachers and administrators to better engage you in your school.
Robert Hicks, Superintendent
