As you can see from the happy children in the picture, Shepherd Glen’s new playground is definitely play-worthy and a big hit!  The ribbon-cutting to officially open the playground was held recently, with Mayor Curt Leng and Principal Corey Jackson doing the official ribbon-cutting honors.

This playground was a long-time coming – and badly needed to address significant safety concerns. The cost of the playground was provided through state funding, secured for Hamden by State Representative Mike D’Agostino. In the future, when Shepherd Glen School is repurposed as part of the 3R Initiative, the playground will either remain in place for the local community's use or be relocated to a new Hamden location.

Congratulations to Church Street's Tiffany Cofrin, Hamden's Teacher of the Year! Pictured here are Tiffany and some of her Church Street School colleagues, donning their TOTY (Teacher Of The Year) T-shirts with Tiffany's picture! Also pictured is Tiffany with John DeRosa, Councilman on the Hamden Legislative Council and former Board of Ed member - and also TIFFANY'S PROUD DAD!
