The Town of Sherman Connecticut

Founded in 1802, Sherman has a rich colonial history and maintains a traditional New England village center. The town is served by a single K-8 school, Sherman School, after which students typically attend New Milford High School or private institutions. There is no major commercial development, reinforcing its rural charm.

The town places a strong emphasis on conservation, with protected open spaces such as Naromi Land Trust properties and state parks ensuring sustainable development. The Sherman School serves students from pre-K to 8th grade, with high schoolers attending regional schools in nearby towns.

Civic engagement is strong, with local governance handled through town meetings. Conservation is a priority, with efforts to preserve open space, protect Candlewood Lake’s water quality, and maintain the town’s natural beauty. Sherman has consistently been recognized as one of the best small towns in Connecticut for its quality of life and environmental preservation efforts.
