he two educational institutions in Hatfield are the D M Breor Elementary School, for children in kindergarten through sixth grade, and Smith Academy high school, with grades seven through twelve. Because of the small size and relatively small population, individual classes of students in all grades are, likewise, small in size. However, this small size may be somewhat of a virtue, as the public schools of Hatfield produce many bright individuals. This is certainly a reflection on the town, which has shown a great deal of support for Hatfield schools over the years.

The town of Hatfield has always placed great importance on education. The quality of education and the successful graduates, nearly all of which are college bound in each graduating class, reflect this fact.
