Regional School District 16 is a school district made up of the towns of Beacon Falls and Prospect in New Haven County, Connecticut. It is currently run by Superintendent of Schools Michael Yamin.

History[edit]

In 2014, the district rolled out plans for a three-part construction project that would take place over the following years: renovations to Laurel Ledge, a new elementary school for Prospect students, and a new district office.

At the closing of the 2014–2015 school year, construction of Prospect Elementary School was completed. Algonquin School, which previously held students grades K-3, was demolished shortly afterwards, with a new district office built on site.

Beginning with the 2016–2017 school year, the district rolled out plans for a 1:1 initiative, which allocates a Chromebook to every student at Woodland Regional High School.
