Our community has talked about a new track and field for almost 20 years. We’re so close, turf starts going down in a few days. Ledyard has a strong tradition of excellence in everything we do and I’m proud that our students will have an amazing track and field.

As stressful as it’s been managing aspects of this crisis, it pales in comparison to the stress from the conversation I just had with my 84 yo mom. She’s furious about baseball and church being cancelled and won’t listen to me about social distancing.

Too many power line and tree issues for our buses to safely navigate town roads. Ledyard Public Schools will be closed today. While the pavement will most likely be clear by mid morning the tree and line issues will be a multiple day challenge for our town

The governor has declared a state of emergency. That gives him legal authority to take many actions to combat COVID19. That said, no guidance has been provided that changes our course of action so far. I will update the community as soon as I have more information.

So eggs are in short supply in my Mom’s area. I’m making an egg run to Mass so she doesn’t go out to a dozen stores looking. Dropping them off and running away bc she will be “mad” I came up and didn’t go inside. At some point she may realize she’s 84 and vulnerable

Don’t read this selectively: We’re still required to consult with public health for decisions on closures. Just because there is now a 180 day waiver doesn’t mean we act in an irresponsible manner, either way. We have a lot to do in school, but not at the risk of our health.
