Fairfield PD Officer Nick Ardizzone and his K9 Bolt joined Dwight Grade 5 students for their end-of-year SHAPE graduation celebration. Bolt impressed students with his skills, demonstrating how he assists in emergency situations, and won everyone over with his adorable leap into Officer Ardizzone’s arms.

The SHAPE program helps students make safe, healthy choices and understand how their decisions impact both their own well-being and the school community around them. Fairfield Police Department - Connecticut

The Burr Roots & Shoots Trashion Show took place with great fanfare and flair! Students designed and modeled creative ensembles made from recycled materials, proudly walking the runway to showcase their imaginative and eco-friendly creations. Thanks to all of the volunteers who made this wonderful event possible!

After learning about pollinators in Mrs. Giacobbe’s class, North Stratfield first graders put their knowledge into action by planting pollinator-friendly plants in the butterfly garden. Parent volunteers also enhanced the experience with a touch table and a native tree activity.

Summer may not officially be here yet, but this is a great way to kick it off!

If you have a teen at home, this is worth knowing. More than 1.6 million kids in the U.S. were using e-cigarettes in 2024, and a growing number are using them every single day. That's not experimenting. That's addiction.

Nearly 90% of young users are drawn in by flavored products. Fruit, candy, mint. They're made to appeal to kids, and they're working.

Talk with your teen about what's actually in these products, and why they're designed the way they are. https://loom.ly/QPkUiN8
