This week, I had a great morning at Lewis Mills High School for the students’ Civic Action presentations.
They shared thoughtful ideas to improve the community like making the Route 4 intersection safer, and expanding Burlington Library’s collection of “Things” that can be loaned out to residents (like a popcorn machine and more).
It’s encouraging to see young people engaged, informed, & offering thoughtful ideas to improve the community.
Great conversation this morning at Tunxis Community College about student programs and the college’s impact on our community. Tunxis plays such an important role in providing accessible higher ed and workforce training opportunities across central CT.
Most importantly, it was great to hear directly from students and faculty about their experiences and how these programs are helping to set students up for post-grad prosperity!
