NEW ADVISORY FOCUS!




This year in Mr. Forde's Advisory we will be focusing on helping our local environment by providing assistance to the SoundWaters organization.

You may them as the group with the great 3-masted schooner and the cool house you can visit at Cove Island Park.


There are so many ways to help. What do you think would be a good way to assist Soundwaters?

Thanks in advance for your ideas!

Mr. F :-)

ps- The Food Bank of Lower Fairfield County was an awesome advisory topic last year but anohter advisor will take over that topic! We can still help them also! :-)
