Please be advised that due to a major water main break last night in relation to the fire on Fruit street, there are several areas of town experiencing discoloration from the dislodgement of the minerals on the inside of the main. Crews worked through the night to make repairs. We ask you to please check your water before using it and you may need to flush your cold water lines to help clear the pipes.

Kenny is a very sweet boy with a great personality! He loves going out for long walks and going exploring with his human pals. He's also quite the cuddler! He's enrolled in obedience classes and is a very smart cookie. He'll thrive in an active home with an experienced dog owner with adults only, or with older, respectful teens and should be a solo pet. This handsome four year old hound hasn't had it easy, but he's a delightful young dog who needs a second chance at happiness.

Dear Families and Faculty,
I drove around the school district today along with Mary Ann Fitzpatrick (Transportation Coordinator) and was impressed with the work that has taken place in the wake of the blizzard, followed by the latest storm. While we enjoy our winding country roads during fair weather, they do provide a significant challenge to maintain in winter. Our DPW should be applauded for the terrific job they have done throughout the past challenging weeks.
