Meriden: Scores on standardized tests rise substantially in the city and relative to other communities. While we continue to believe, as do many, that in some senses the standardized testing and associated teaching merely hones that particular skill, it is good, given the federal law and the rising horizon, that Meriden is having some success with it.

State: the results of the grand juror investigation of the Hartford governmental corruption should be made public at once and let the chips fall. Those under the gun should see what’s being aimed at them, and prosecutors should get on the stick and file charges. Nothing is to be gained by delay.
