Bridgehampton UFSD

Bridgehampton School’s first graders enjoyed a special Toy Reveal event, the culmination of a collaborative project with seventh grade students.

Over the past several weeks, the seventh graders worked hard to design and create custom toys for the younger students. Combining engineering skills, creativity and problem-solving, the seventh graders developed unique toy creations tailored for the first graders.

At the reveal, the seventh graders proudly showcased their finished projects and presented them to the first grade students!

Thank you to Assemblyman Tommy John Schiavoni for visiting the Bridgehampton School and speaking with students about his role representing District 1 in the New York State Assembly!

His insights into the legislative process and public service provided students with a meaningful and engaging learning experience.

We are proud to recognize several CTE students for earning industry-recognized certifications!

Congratulations to all of our student-athletes on an incredible year! 🏆

We are incredibly proud of their accomplishments and look forward to the impact they will continue to make as leaders, role models and Bridgehampton Bees.

The Bridgehampton Union Free School District has appointed Robert Hauser as its new Assistant Superintendent for Finance & Operations, effective July 1, 2026.

Mr. Hauser is no stranger to the Bridgehampton School community, as he previously served as both an Assistant Superintendent for Finance and Operations from 2010 to 2018 before becoming Superintendent, a position he held from 2018 to 2021. Most recently, he served as Assistant Superintendent for Business and Operations for the Connetquot Central School District.

Throughout his previous tenure in Bridgehampton, Mr. Hauser played a key role in the district's building expansion project, helping guide the initiative through its successful completion in June of 2018.

“His extensive experience and longstanding connection to the school district make him a valuable addition to our administrative team, and we are grateful to have him back in Bridgehampton,” said Superintendent of Schools Dr. Brigid Collins. “The district is excited to welcome Mr. Hauser back to the hive, and we look forward to his leadership in supporting the continued success of the Bridgehampton School.”

Mr. Hauser replaces Dr. Peter Daly, who has served as the district’s interim business administrator for the past several years.

In honor of National CPR & AED Awareness Week (June 1-7), students in Mrs. Pluta's middle and high school health classes are learning the lifesaving skills of CPR and AED use.

Through hands-on training, students are gaining the knowledge and confidence to respond in emergency situations. Those who are present for the entirety of the program will earn certification through the American Heart Association's Heartsaver CPR & AED course.

These valuable real-world skills help prepare our students to make a difference when every second counts. ❤️🩺

Giving back to the community is an important part of the National Honor Society experience at Bridgehampton School.

After fundraising efforts, members of the Bridgehampton National Honor Society recently donated $500 to the Bridgehampton Child Care & Recreational Center. The organization holds a special place in the hearts of many students, who have benefited from its programs and services throughout the years.

National Honor Society students presented the donation to Executive Director Bonnie Cannon and Executive Assistant to the Executive Director Jenna Solis.

The donation reflects our students' commitment to service and their appreciation for an organization that has had a positive impact on the Bridgehampton community. Congratulations to our NHS members for making a difference and giving back to a place that means so much to them!
