Girls’ Basketball Team Beats Weston After Hard-Fought Setback Versus Notre Dame

The Way We Were

Deborah B. Lyon

Newtown Scholarship Association Opens Application Portal For 2026-27 Academic Year

Under Herb's proposal it sounds like day-to-day operations he used to manage as a FS will be handed off to an unelected bureaucrat either way, with the only choice the voters may have is if they will do so with a figurehead FS in place as well.

Disagrees With Capeci On Administrator

Hey Kath, Name a single right that is being threatened....

Elections Have Consequences XXI

Which is it? If you're taking a stand against ICE which is in place to ENFORCE FEDERAL IMMIGRATION LAWS that include going after people here in our country who are criminal (child sex trafficking, pedophelia, assault, rape, murder, etc.) also, they're in our country illegally. Then are you in favor of these people ICE is working to remove?

Rock This Democracy Holds ‘March To Melt ICE’

Arnie, a newcomer to Town government, advocates for a significant change government structure—one that could have real implications for how Newtown’s budget is developed and administered—yet he has already “made up his mind” before engaging in the actual budget process with his colleagues on the Legislative Council. If we are serious about thoughtful governance and transparency, shouldn’t public officials, at a minimum, participate in the deliberative process they will soon be part of, before issuing definitive public positions on items they will be voting on?

A Better-Run Newtown Starts With One Change

It means more than I can say to hear that more young folks are inspired to get involved. Thank you so much for such a thoughtful letter, Mike!
