Rep. Klarides-Ditria Renews Call to Pass School Safety Bill
HARTFORD – State Rep. Nicole Klarides-Ditria submitted testimony last week in support of legislation that seeks to enhance classroom safety and school climate.
Under the bill, H.B. 7110, boards of education would be required to revise their safe school climate plans to include provisions relating to disruptive or injurious incidents that occur in classrooms, to develop and implement a state-wide school climate survey, and to require the Department of Education to provide assistance to school districts relating to school climate.
Rep. Klarides-Ditria said, “It is crucial that we highly prioritize the safety of students and teachers. Giving teachers the ability to remove dangerous students for a short time with the requirement that they follow designated protocols will protect the rights and safety of the child in question, the teacher, and fellow students.
A similar bill was passed by the House and Senate last session but was vetoed by Governor Dan Malloy. For more information about the people or to track legislation visit, cga.ct.gov.

New Haven Law Group Gives Valley Non Profit a Big Boost
New Haven’s Faxon Law Group continued its yearly Bucket List Challenge campaign by donating $10,000 to Project Purple, a CT-based pancreatic cancer research and patient financial aid charity,
and to Hartford’s Camp Courant, the oldest and largest free summer camp in the United States.
The trial law firm raised close to $60,000 in total for the two charities by collecting donations online and entering donors who contributed $100 or more into a raffle to win a bucket list
trip to Kona, Hawaii.
According to Faxon Law Group’s website, the trip is valued at $10,000 and includes
round trip airfare for two guests, a 7-night deluxe hotel stay, complimentary entries to the Kona Marathon and/or Family Fun Runs, a gift card for spending, and more.
The trip’s two lucky winners, Marisa and Paul Valentinetti, were thrilled
to win after Marisa generously donated to Project Purple in honor of her mother who passed away from pancreatic cancer.
