Welcome to Bristol Local Schools
Overview
The Bristol Local School District serves the students of Bristol Township and West Farmington, Ohio. The Bristol Local School System exists to meet the needs of the pupils and the needs of society. Hence the needs of pupils and the needs of society become the center about which the school functions.
Pupils have common as well as individual needs. The district is responsible for ascertaining and meeting these needs. The personality of the pupil is to be respected, but such respect must be conditioned by the ideals of this democratic society of which he/she is a part. Learning is an active and passive process. The student learns most readily through participation. Individuals differ in interests, abilities, aptitudes, and learning styles, and insofar as possible, the district makes provisions for these differences.
The curriculum included all the experiences, which the district provides for the growth of the student. The content of the curriculum is developed by studying the needs of the individual and society. The curriculum shall be dynamic and flexible and continually strives for improvement.
