The Worcester School Committee Meeting is On this Week
Last week, the School Committee meeting was cancelled due to an error by the City while posting the committee agenda.
The School Committee hasn’t met since before April school vacation — which should make this meeting…long.
The meeting is Thursday night at 7 PM at City Hall.
See the committee agenda here.
EAW Forum is Tonight
The Educational Association of Worcester [EAW] will meet tonight from 5-7:30 PM for an election forum. Three candidates are running for EAW president — incumbent Roger Nugent, former president Leonard Zalauskas and Michael Patrick Lyons. The evening will consist of a meet and great with the candidates, followed by a question and answer period.
