In The News | Montville Board of Education candidates talk masks and transparency

Montville (The Day, October 21, 2021) — Candidates for the Board of Education answered questions on mask and vaccine mandates, school programs and issues of transparency with the public.

Democrat Tara Crossley, 40, is a real estate agent who lost when she ran for the board four years ago and wants to give it another go as a mother of two children in the school system. She said the school board already does a “pretty good job,” but believes there could be better advertising of board meetings to ensure more parents have an opportunity to provide input.

In regards to masks and vaccine mandates, Crossley said she is comfortable with whatever the government wants although she understands others may see it differently.

Running for a spot on the Board of Education for the first time, Democrat Timothy Shanahan, 58, has served on the town’s youth advisory board and volunteered at local fire departments for a long time. He is the treasurer of the Chesterfield Fire Co.

He said he would like to improve the yearly budget and see more transparency within the district, “making sure things aren’t swept under the rug.”

Currently filling a vacancy on the board, Republican Wills Pike, 63, also is running for Town Council.

Pike said he would push to upgrade the district’s computer and information technology systems, developing a plan to invest half a million dollars to make sure students have adequate resources.

Pike said the schools should continue to follow state mandates on masks or else face liability should there be any consequences of not doing so.

The current chairman of the board, Democrat Sandra Berardy, 79, is a retired advanced practice nurse and had two kids who grew up and were educated in Montville. She said she is interested in the continution of safety programs and the introduction of new programs that improve technology and internet broadband.

Berardy said she does not think the board has issues of transparency with the public, adding that the members are at the meetings to take public comments into discussion.

Newcomer Tina Grove, 66, a Republican, is a former Navy official and professor at Goodwin University in East Hartford. Grove said in July she hopes to use her background and doctorate in education to keep Montville at “the forefront of education.”

Democrat Grace Carlos, 21, graduated Montville High School in 2018. She is studying political science at Three Rivers Community College, has interned in the lieutenant governor’s office and hosts a podcast with the town’s youth services in which she interviews local and state leaders on youth-related topics.

Carlos said she is “excited” about the start of state-required Black and Latino studies at the high school and added that there is always room for improvement when it comes to transparency.

“I feel working on new ways to share information in timely and effective manner will strengthen the communication and relationship our board has with our community,” she said.

Democrat John Desjardins, 54, has been on the Planning and Zoning Commission since 2008. He said it was a good start but he wants to be more active in the community. Havine spent 26 years in the military, he said he has a “holistic” philosophy in regards to education and feels strongly that students should have a well-rounded education.

Republican Florence Turner, 50, could not be reached for this article. According to the Republican Town Committee website, she has resided in Montville for the past 36 years and has worked at the town’s transfer station for the past 19 years. She has a child and a grandchild in the school system.

She “believes that educating our children is an enormous responsibility and two-thirds of the town budget,” the site reads.

Running for Board of Assessment Appeals are Democrat Gary Murphy and Republican Richard Cenami. For the Zoning Board of Appeals, the candidates are John MacNeil, a Democrat and chairman of the board, and Republicans Alfred J. Mandler and Vincent Atwater-Young.

Mandler, who also is running for Town Council, said if elected to the ZBA, he would “make informed decisions based on what the town has and needs.”

Editor’s Note: John MacNeil, who is running for a position on the Zoning Board of Appeals, is not a newcomer. He is chairman of the board.

CSCU ANNOUNCES STUDENT SUPPORT PROGRAM TO PROVIDE SUSTAINED FUNDING TO COMMUNITY COLLEGE STUDENTS

(HARTFORD, CT) – Connecticut State Colleges and Universities (CSCU) President Terrence Cheng today announced the launch of the Student Support Program, an initiative aimed at providing sustained payments to community college students throughout the academic year. Funded through the American Rescue Plan, the federal stimulus package signed by President Biden in March, the program seeks to provide students with the resources necessary to continue their education during difficult economic times.

“We are doing everything in our power to remove external barriers, helping community college students stay in school and complete their degrees,” said President Cheng. “The Student Support Program will provide a boost to assist students and their families in making ends meet. While this money can be used for any component of the cost of attendance, I strongly encourage those students who have not yet done so to register for classes for the fall 2021 semester.”

The first round of funding will be sent this week, mostly via paper checks, to all students who are currently enrolled or were previously enrolled in a community college at any point since March 13, 2020. The amount of each check will be either $100 or $350 depending on financial need as demonstrated on the FAFSA or the Aid Application for Connecticut Undocumented Students (AACTUS).

“A community college education can be transformational, but it is only possible if students have the ability to attend and complete,” Connecticut State Community College Interim President David Levinson said. “The Student Support Program is just one step CSCU is taking – using federal stimulus funding – to provide our students with the resources necessary to continue their educational journeys.”

CSCU expects to make additional Student Support Program payments in October and December 2021 and in spring 2022. Future payments may be limited to currently enrolled students, and will include direct payments based on need as well as application-based grants for students with extraordinary needs. The total cost of the Student Support Program is estimated to be approximately $58 million. CSCU has previously provided $28 million directly to community college students. While the Student Support Program is specific to community college students, the state universities have already paid out $27 million directly to students and expect to provide another $37 million this year. Charter Oak State College has already distributed $284,000 and will distribute an additional $477,000.

In July, President Cheng announced a separate $17 million initiative, also using federal COVID-19 relief funding, to forgive debt to the community colleges which students took on or could not repay because of the pandemic.

“We are here for you,” President Cheng concluded. “If you haven’t already done so, now is the time to register for classes this fall.”

In The News | Girls learn about STEM careers during summer program

Norwich (The Day, July 19, 2021) — At Three Rivers Community College on Monday, teenage girls and adults teaching them about careers in science, technology, engineering and math gathered around a table to make necklaces using patterns of beads to signify words in Morse code.

The participants of the STEM summer program had just heard from Elizabeth Peterson, an electrical engineer at Electric Boat, about how to identify their values to help choose a career. She explained what an engineer does and what she likes about her career, including being able to make a difference and performing interesting work.

Earlier in the day, the girls participated in relay races, games and yoga, and heard a talk from a cybersecurity expert.

S.T.E.P.S., Inc., a Groton-based nonprofit organization which stands for Striving Toward Empowered Personal Success and whose mission is to empower young women, is holding the four-week summer college and career enrichment program, focused on STEM, along with the National Council of Negro Women and Soroptimist International Connecticut Shoreline.

Amanda Stanberry, 16, and Alexis Wheeler, 15, both of Mystic, who became friends after meeting at the program on Monday, were helping each other as they created their Morse code necklaces.

After listening to a talk from cybersecurity specialist Migdalia Wills earlier in the day, Stanberry said she had learned about the importance of being yourself, and she was making connections in the STEM field.

Wheeler said she was learning about colleges and different opportunities. She said it’s important to try new things.

“If you push yourself to try new things then you could learn more and you can have more fun than you think you would,” she said.

S.T.E.P.S., Inc. received a $150,000 Summer Enrichment Innovation Grant from the state Department of Education for the program.

The program, which runs through Aug. 6 and is being held at local college campuses, is offering STEM workshops in which girls aged 16 to 19 learn from professionals working in STEM fields and engage in STEM-based activities, such as building drones. The girls also participate in activities, such as yoga and meditation, for their wellbeing after the COVID-19 pandemic. The group also goes on field trips and college tours. Spaces are still available for girls to join the program.

S.T.E.P.S. Executive Director Beatrice Jennette said that during the COVID-19 pandemic there was not an opportunity to go on college tours, so organizers want to make sure the girls now get to visit colleges and schools with strong STEM programs so they see what is available not just locally, but also in neighboring states.

She said they are trying to show the girls that nothing is impossible. Every day, a professional with a STEM career is sharing with the girls what their career is like.

STEM was chosen as the theme for the summer enrichment program because the growing field offers a sustainable future, said Jennette.

Fernanda Reyes, 20, an intern who is studying Allied Health Sciences at the University of Connecticut-Storrs, said that growing up she was taught by her mother about how important STEM is and how women are needed in the field.

She said she felt like a role model for some of the younger students and she was able to explain things to them about college, including about meal plans and financial aid and tips not taught on college tours, such as how to get cheaper textbooks through Facebook groups.

Gabby Fedus, 16, of Montville, who is participating in the program, said she had already learned on her first day a lot about teamwork and about college and a career.

Fedus, who is in the biotech trade at Norwich Technical High School, said she liked being around other women in the STEM field during the program.

Toni Xu, 17, of Uncasville, said she wasn’t sure what major she was going to be in college before, but now she is interested in finance and business.

“I think this opportunity gives me a lot of time to think about what I’m going to do in the future,” she said.

In the News | Lawmakers push to bring the lottery online and use money for community college funding

(WFSB, February 9, 2021) – The lottery brought in $330 million last year from people all looking to strike rich.  Now, there’s a push to make it even easier to get your tickets, by bringing the lottery online.

TRCC Student InterviewedIf this is passed, community college students could continue to get a chance at a free ride. The program is called PACT and it started last year. The funding comes from a grant and when that money runs out, lawmakers would like to pull it from the online lottery.

“Once I heard it was going through, it was like a miracle,” said Lilia Burdo, Three Rivers Community College. Lilia Burdo is one of the first participants of Connecticut’s PACT program. It provides debt-free community college to first-time college students. Burdo, a freshman at Three Rivers Community College, wants to be a high school English teacher.

“I also set a goal to graduate with as little debt as possible and PACT has allowed me to do that, and I know that some of my friends also have PACT, so it allows us to work and save money toward education after Three Rivers,” Burdo said. PACT started in the fall 2020 semester and more than 2,000 students are reaping the benefits.

“This is sort of the wave of the future,” Osten said. Connecticut’s lottery already brings in hundreds of millions of dollars each year and the money goes to the general fund.

PACT, which costs $6 million a year to fund, would only need a fraction of that. “The only part that would go for debt-free college is the money that’s necessary to go toward debt-free college,” Osten said. Osten says everything else would continue to go toward the general fund. “It sounds like it’s not too much of a financial burden and if it’s giving thousands of kids and adults education that they need to pursue a good paying job, I think it’s definitely worth it,” Burdo said. The bill will be discussed later this month, but Osten says it has bipartisan support and was set to pass last year, but the pandemic got in the way.

This will not include sports wagering because it’s going to be tougher to pass, so Osten says it’s not tied to PACT.
