Dr. Dan Cortright, an eighth-grade science teacher at Bedford Middle School, was honored last night in Hartford, CT, along with district Teachers of the Year from across the state as part of the Connecticut Teacher of the Year Awards Ceremony. The annual event celebrates educators who exemplify excellence, leadership, and dedication to students and the profession.
The Bedford Middle School Science Olympiad team delivered an outstanding performance at the Brown University Invitational on December 7, earning multiple top-six medals and placing sixth overall among teams representing six states. Coaches Daniel Cortright and Caitlin Quinn accompanied the students as they competed in a wide range of STEM events that challenged their problem-solving, collaboration, and application of scientific knowledge.
