Bedford Public Schools

 

 

Welcome to the Bedford Public Schools district website! I am honored to serve as Superintendent of this outstanding community, where students, families, staff, and community members work together to make Bedford a truly special place.

Our mission, “Educating for Life,” guides everything we do. At Bedford, we believe learning extends far beyond the classroom—it’s about preparing students with the knowledge, skills, and character they need to succeed in school and in life. Every day, our dedicated educators and staff strive to create opportunities that inspire curiosity, encourage growth, and build resilience.

As the proud home of the Kicking Mules, our district is steeped in tradition, pride, and a strong sense of community. That spirit shines through in our classrooms, athletic fields, fine arts programs, and in the countless ways our students contribute to the world around them.

This website is designed to keep you connected with the latest news, resources, and celebrations from across the district. I encourage you to explore it often, as it reflects the energy, talent, and commitment that make Bedford Public Schools such a vibrant learning community.

Thank you for your partnership and support. Together, we are shaping the future—Educating for Life.

 

Always Mule Pride,


Dr. Carl Shultz
