We are concerned for the illness of Principal Tom Brown of Meriden’s Pulaski School and we wish him and his family the very best. He’s been a very strong member of the school system for two decades.
Wallingford wound up the last fiscal year with a surplus, due to leaving positions unfilled. This holds the budget line, and is probably what taxpayers want, but it’s hard on those who need services as well as on employees who often must cover for unfilled jobs.
Renovation of Southington’s middle schools, a job long in the decision, is clearly not going to be short in the execution, either. But the process is underway and will eventually produce two up-to-date schools.
Possible revival of the Learning Academy in Southington, a program at the high school aimed at freshmen and sophomores who are failing courses at the end of their school year. After school programs, twice a week, may not be everyone’s dream come true, but it offers second chances for some who take advantage of the program.
Meriden looks forward to a concert February 11 from its newly formed Pops Orchestra, which will play at the Curtis Cultural Center. We are very glad to see the return of orchestral music to the community and we wish the group a good success.
