I hope that everyone was able to enjoy the long weekend and peep some of the leaves. The temperatures got below freezing for the first time this year here in Western Massachusetts. I would like to remind everyone that my office stands at the ready to help in applications for fuel assistance. The earlier the better is a good rule of thumb.
Wednesday morning, I joined Massachusetts Secretary of Education, Patrick Tutwiler, right here in Westfield to discuss options available to Westfield High students preparing for higher education.
Since 2014, Westfield Public Schools has had the “Westfield Promise Program,” which allows students who are still in high school to take introductory courses at Westfield State University, allowing them to have a leg up on deciding where they would like to focus their studies once they are in school.
