North Branford Intermediate School

JHS is a great community and the staff is second to none! The children of North Branford are very lucky to have such a great educational foundation to build upon.

Our girls attend Mary T Murphy and are in Kindergarten and 2nd grade. They love school and they love learning, so the school must be doing something right. So far, our experience has been excellent. The principal, Anthony Buono, is pleasant, educated, approachable and involved. The teachers are wonderful and the PTA is very active as well. We are very happy with Murphy school.

My son Jr. is currently in kindergarten at Deer Run Elementary, and we have had such a positive experience this year! He was not in prek, so I was a bit worried. His teacher, Mrs. Ragaini, has been absolutely wonderful. She is patient, kind, and truly attentive to her students individual needs. We appreciate her so very much.Since starting school, I’ve seen so much growth in my son!! Not just academically, but socially and emotionally as well. He feels safe, supported, and excited to go to school each day, which means everything to me as a parent.Mrs. Ragaini communicates clearly and makes herself available when parents have questions or concerns. It’s clear she genuinely cares about her students and wants them to succeed. She has an amazing routine! We are very grateful for the nurturing and structured environment at Deer Run Elementary. It has been a great start to my son’s educational journey!
