To the Editor: In my letter to The Bee dated April 4th, I tried bringing to light some important factors I wanted the taxpaying Newtowners to consider when voting on the BOE Budget. Apparently, I struck a chord with the Chairman of the BOF who does n...

To the Editor: Can you afford the largest tax increase in 15 years? If not, let your voice be heard by voting no “too high” on the Board of Education budget on April 23rd. First, let’s debunk the myth that some are against education and trying to “cu...

To the Editor: I serve on the Legislative Council in District 3 and I’ll be voting to support the budget on 4/23. To be clear, these opinions are my own, not of the entire LC. It’s about paying-it-forward. My husband and I moved to Newtown two years ...
