The Annie Sullivan PCC held a fund raiser at Tri-County on Friday night featuring their own Sullivan Rockets basketball team playing the Harlem Wizards.
It was quite a night of entertainment. The picture slide show should capture some of the fun.
Enjoy!

School Committee meeting - pictures added
Pictures have been added to the following live reporting posts from the School Committee meeting on 3/10/09.
Parmenter School notice on half days this week
Parmenter School notice on half days this week reports cards come out Tuesday, originally uploaded by shersteve.
I believe report cards come out Tuesday.
The elementary schools will have half-days to provide time for parent conferences on the Thursday (3/19) and Friday (3/20).
Be resourceful, as you walk pick up recyclables along the way.
With spring coming up this week on the calendar, and hopefully in reality just as soon, there will be more time to get outside to walk and enjoy the fresh air.
Franklin will celebrate Earth Day on April 18th. You can help clean up Franklin without waiting for Earth Day.
When you go for a walk, take a plastic bag (or two) with you.
Walking is good exercise. Bending and stretching to pick up a bottle or aluminum can for the bag is even better. This is the one bag that I came back with from Saturday's walk. Sometimes I end up with two or three.
If all the walkers in Franklin added this to their walk, Franklin would be a cleaner place.
Tip - to the bend and stretch, add a stomp on the can to squish it and make it more compact for the bag. You'll be able to fit more that way.

Sell out for Harlem Wizards!
The Tri-County gym sold all its seats for the fund raiser for Annie Sullivan School on Friday night.
The Sullivan Rockets gave a valiant effort in holding the Harlem Wizards to under 100 points.
A basketball game? Not really from the purest sense but there was great family entertainment!
The Sullivan PCC must be pleased with the turnout.
I should have some pictures up to show some of the action later this weekend!

FRANKLIN —
After learning the town spends $2,700 less per pupil than the state average, Superintendent Wayne Ogden said he is growing increasingly worried Franklin will soon reach the state's minimum spending threshold.
The per-pupil statistics can be viewed as either "very positive or very depressing," depending on one's perspective, Ogden said.
According to the Massachusetts Department of Education Web site, Franklin spends $9,750 per pupil, and the state average is $12,497 per pupil.
Despite Franklin's comparatively low spending per pupil, the district performs at an above-average level in all categories, Ogden said.
"Your teachers and kids continue to do a great job with the resources available," he said.

Andro's Pizza - worth stopping for
I stopped at Andro's Pizza for a late lunch Friday afternoon. Their small cheese calzone was decadently delicious. I'll need to stop back for their pizza sometime.
Have you tried Andro's yet?
