Make room for something new!✨

Join Reiki Master Teacher & Feng Shui Consultant Angela Vernola for a fun, interactive night of decluttering, storytelling, laughter, and AHA moments! 🏡

Bring one item from home that you no longer use or love, then get ready for a Feng Shui–inspired declutter swap—complete with sharing stories, stealing treasures, and plenty of good-natured fun! 🎁

Angela will share insights on the psychology of clutter, how it impacts our energy and mood, and tips to help you create more space in your home and life. She’ll even clear the items with her Tibetan Bell and bless them before they find their next home. 💫

Come ready to give, receive, laugh, and let go! ❤️

We’re also offering Homeschool STEM courses, which give your child the opportunity to learn by doing. Our STEM programs are designed to spark curiosity through interactive and hands-on activities that let students explore science, technology, engineering, and math in exciting real-world ways.

On June 10, EASTCONN proudly celebrated the accomplishments of our graduates, including our NCCER Core Construction students!

Our NCCER graduates crossed the stage to receive their NCCER Core Construction Certificate, OSHA 10 Certification, and a professional toolkit generously provided through the support of the Lowe's Foundation. These credentials represent the hard work and dedication they've shown as they prepare for careers in the skilled trades.

We were also honored to welcome Brian Cardello, District Pro & Services Support Manager for Lowe's, who joined us for the celebration and was presented with the Friends of Adult Education Award in recognition of his support for our students and workforce development programs.

Congratulations to all of our graduates—we can't wait to see what you accomplish next!
