Each year, our program follows the Connecticut Early Learning and Development Standards (CT ELDS) by observing children’s emerging interests and using them as a foundation for meaningful, project-based learning. This year, a shared curiosity developed around the spotted lanternfly, an invasive species frequently found on our playground.

Participants gathered on the iconic Town Hall dais and performed in front of its signature blue mural, creating a setting as memorable as the performances themselves.

This should be clear to anyone who has ever raised a child. …The architect’s rendering ignores the east/west orientation of the building, which will insure the proposed ‘campus’ will spend half the school day (more than half in winter) in darkness. Think slippery not green and welcoming. The size as shown in their plan will dwarf the currently airy children’s section of the library, rendering it dark and dreary.” – Judy Crystal, Byram Continue Reading →
