I’m here today with this month’s Hero Around Town, Dr. Lori
Rodigue, head of our Newtown school system. She has
guided us through tough times in the past, but our school
system has remained fantastic throughout her
tenure.

Connecticut has its challenges, but some of the reasons
that our area tends to improve gradually are because we
have a safe place to live, great policing, and excellent
schools. We owe a lot of that to Dr. Rodrigue and her
incredible staff.

Here’s an outline of our full conversation, with
timestamps so that you can skip ahead to the section(s)
that interest you the most:

1:25- What are the biggest challenges right now for the
Newtown school district?

5:11- The challenges the district is currently facing
head-on

6:15- What Lori considers her biggest accomplishment

8:25- My thoughts on the Newtown school system and its
strong culture of caring

9:30- Wrapping things up

Thanks so much to Dr. Rodrigue for joining me. It was
wonderful to hear her perspective. If you have any
real-estate related questions that I can answer, feel free
to reach out at any time via phone or email. I look forward
to hearing from you soon.
