I’m here today with this month’s Hero Around Town, Dr. Lori Rodigue, head of our Newtown school system. She has guided us through tough times in the past, but our school system has remained fantastic throughout her tenure.
Connecticut has its challenges, but some of the reasons that our area tends to improve gradually are because we have a safe place to live, great policing, and excellent schools. We owe a lot of that to Dr. Rodrigue and her incredible staff.
