Bedford Public Schools (Massachusetts)

Bedford Public Schools is a school district in Bedford, Massachusetts, United States. Once encompassing 5 elementary schools, a junior high and high school, has since made changes to system layout. From 1979 to 1989, they have closed two elementary schools, and restructured which schools students attend for certain grades. In recent years, The Davis School was completely rebuilt next to the former building, and The Job Lane School and the Bedford High School received additions increasing the capacity of those buildings.
