“Congratulations to Ben
Yambao, a sixth grader, who won First Place in the
city-wide “Youth Speaks Out” contest. Ben was one of 12
finalists to compete out of 956 entries for grades 6 – 8.
On Tuesday, May 13, St.
Joseph School will celebrate the 80th Anniversary of the
dedication of the school by the late Bishop John J. Nilan,
Bishop of Hartford. One very interesting fact regarding this
dedication is that on that date the school was entirely free of
any indebtedness. The children will celebrate this birthday
with a party, complete with cake and ice cream sundaes. A giant
birthday card/banner signed by all two hundred and six students
will be hung in front of the school and a professional photo
taken of the students, staff, administration, clergy and
religious will memorialize the event. Thank you St. Joseph
Parish for your wonderful support over these 80 years!
Love and prayers,
Arlene Clancy”
