BOE finds funds to keep two full-time positions

OUT & ABOUT

By Devin Leith-Yessian The Citizen

The Board of Education will use savings in this year’s budget to add two full-time positions back into the next fiscal year’s spending plan which begins July 1. A literacy tutor at Wheeler Elementary School will move from part-time to full-time and a Plainville High School behavioral technician, another fulltime position, will be restored. At the Board of Education’s May 28 meeting, board member Foster White said the two positions are critical to the district. “I think we have to prioritize those things,” he said. The positions were initially part of a $100,000 cut to the board’s budget, which was in line with the April 30 budget referendum vote. The municipal budget was approved, but the school budget failed.

Thursday, June 6, 2019

The revised budget was passed 863-369 during a second vote, on May 14. Money freed up by prepaying some of next year’s contracts – using money in this year’s budget – made it possible for the two positions to be funded. The district is prepaying the cost of some diesel and legal fees and for the designing of a new entrance at Plainville High School to improve security – which will result in savings in the amount of around $130,000. Around half that will cover the reinstatement of the two full-time positions, with the rest hedging against the possibility that contract negotiations for janitors and office professionals will yield higher-thanexpected salaries. The remaining cuts the Board of Education made to reduce its budget to $38.2 million include leaving some positions unfilled temporarily, holding See BOE, A11

Southington Drive-In: 10 years of ‘reel’ nostalgia By Ashley Kus Record-Journal staff

SOUTHINGTON — The community-run Southington Drive-In on Meriden-Waterbury Turnpike kicked off its 10th season last week with a lineup of movies also celebrating big anniversaries.

“One of the movies we were able to get, and it has a 30year anniversary this summer, is the original ‘Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade,’” said Dawn Miceli, Town Council vice chairwoman and drive-in committee member. The movie will be shown

Twinkle is a lovely, little tuxedo. She was found alongside the road in what was thought to be a hit-by-car incident. It turned out that Twinkle was just confused, because she was ready to have kittens and did not know what to do. Following a vet appointment, Twinkle had four kittens in a cozy bed in her foster home. Her kittens have gone home and now it's Twinkles turn to shine. She loves attention, loves people, and she will certainly add some sparkle to your home. Wizzard is a big, mellow pussy cat. He has a sense of humor and is always flipping for fun. Wizzard is good with other cats and loves to eat. For more information, visit hucatrescue.org, call 860-479-5173 or email hucatrescue@gmail.com.

As a leadership coach, I love it when ideas stick long after a conversation has ended. In the conversation, someone brings up an idea, information is provided, opinions are exchanged, and people can contribute, feeling connected to both the idea and each other. But then the conversation ends – and that’s the most critical part. Will the idea, thoughts, opinions and behaviors stick, thrive and build beyond that moment? May was Mental Health Awareness Month, and it’s a month of reflection, reminding us to continue having

conversations about mental health long after its designated month has ended. In May, especially, one can see the power of both communication and sharing in action in our communities. While the public is educated on what mental health means and how it impacts others, those with mental health disorders are implored to continue taking care of themselves. And that self-reflection can apply to all of us, whether we have a diagnosed mental illness or not. Most people may think the phrase “mental health” covSee Emotions, A10

Drive-In From A1

every year as its first movie. “Our first year it was just, can we actually put out a product?” Miceli said of the decision by the town to take over the old privately owned drive-in that opened in 1955 and closed in 2003. “We have grown unbelievably.”

Last year the committee unveiled a new 22-foot tall entrance sign, a replica of the original 1955 sign. Other updates in the last decade include new projectors and painting the remaining screen saved from the original business. The Southington Drive-In is one of only three remaining outdoor venues in Connecticut, along with the Mansfield Drive-In Theatre and

Marketplace in Mansfield and Pleasant Valley Drive-In in Barkhamsted. All 15 movies of the 2019 summer season in Southington are hosted by a nonprofit or civic organization. Proceeds benefit local organizations. Miceli said the committee has donated over $200,000 to the host groups over the last 10 years The cost per carload for Southington residents is $12 and $18 for non-residents. Walk-ins are $2 per person. Debit or credit cards are not accepted.

Here’s the complete schedule: Saturday, June 1 – Jaws Saturday, June 8 – The Little Mermaid Saturday, June 15 – Back to the Future

ing up about who we are and what we’re going through. Power exists in that communication and honesty. The lesson provided by Mental Health Awareness Month and our friends, colleagues and family members living with mental health disorders is the need to make self-care a priority. Be sure you apply self-care in your various environments, those of work, family, friends, business, etc. How much are you letting stress impact your life? Are you taking care of yourself? Are you as open as you can be about the way you’re feeling? Who do you trust enough in your life to open up to? Be honest. Be open. Your communities need you. John M.

off on upgrading some textbooks, reducing a teaching position for the hearing impaired from full-time to part-time and switching the spring sports program at the Middle School of Plainville to intramural. The spring sports programming was selected with the hope that the district can save money or find alternative funding in time to bump it back up to the interscholastic level, which would cost around $12,000. “It gives us time anyway to account for the shortfall,” Assistant Superintendent of Schools Stephen LePage said, raising the possibility of holding a fundraiser if savings can’t be found.

Additionally, the General Assembly’s Appropriations Committee could make changes to the formula used to distribute state education cost sharing funds, resulting in some additional revenue. Much of the $30,000 savings from leaving positions open comes from delaying filling LePage’s position as assistant superintendent. He’s been promoted to replace the current superintendent, Maureen Brummett, who will leave her post at the end of this academic year. LePage said the assistant superintendent position could remain unfilled until September. Board member Becky Tyrrell said she had concerns that leaving positions open into the next school year could result in qualified candidates being hired by other districts.
