Southington town officials and school officials are preparing a unified wish list – proposed and prioritized bonding projects – so that the Town Council and Board of Ed can look at lists simultaneously and with any other departments which plan work. It’s a good way to avoid mix-ups and duplication.
While poking your neighbor and doodling are certainly “mischief” students can get into with pencils, such is not on the order of looking up answers on smart phones, as authorities in local systems in Cheshire, Wallingford, Southington and Meriden well know. Yet trends seem to be in the direction of incorporating such devices into the curriculum rather than on excluding them.
Meriden Boys and Girls Club’s annual golf tournament and auction is set for Thursday of this week. It has an ambitious fundraising goal and we wish it the best of luck.
Meriden’s a Playful City. For those who aren’t sure, be advised that this designation, by the non-profit organization KaBOOM, has grants to give out to help residents, especially kids, have places to play.
