Education
We fully support the Board of Education’s efforts to create a school system that provides the resources necessary for students of all interests and abilities to reach their full potential. The principles we honor include:
| • |
Mutual respect and cooperation between Town Hall and the Board of Education through open and honest communication
|
| • |
A relationship with the Board of Education and the Superintendent that respects and celebrates the efforts of the school system.
|
| • |
Open communication about the needs of the school system and the town’s financial ability to support those needs. |
Fran Walsh spent his entire career in the field of education. When he retired, he was honored for his 24 years of service as the principal of the middle school. The school is now known as the Francis Walsh Jr. Intermediate School.
In our previous administrations, we accepted nearly every invitation received to speak to a class, to appear at an educational event, or to attend a school performance. |
