4 Derby students receive CABE awards for leadership

DERBY - The Derby Board of Education and Superintendent, Dr. Matthew Conway, Jr., have recognized students for receiving the Connecticut Association of Boards of Education Student Leadership Awards.  

These students received this award for their leadership, more specifically in the areas of taking on challenges, ability to make difficult decisions, concern for others, ability to work well with others, and diplomacy.  

Derby Middle School students Brooke Uleano and Shane Dedura and Derby High School students Rachel Layseca and Xavier Ibrahim were recognized at the June 5 Board of Education meeting. 

Board of Education Chairman Jim Gildea said, “It is always an honor to recognize the best students that our school system has to offer.  The students who received the CABE Student Leadership Awards are all special students who exhibit qualities that designate them as leaders among their peers. They are most deserving of their awards.”

This is a press release from Derby Public Schools.

19th century photo features 4 Shelton residents

Sharing with permission from The Valley Post:

"This old picture was found in Shelton City Hall, between the rafters, and hidden for reasons unknown. There was no information on this picture of the 'Whiskered Foursome' until the Suburban News published it and asked if someone had a clue to their identity.

"Mrs. Harry B. Brownson of Shelton replied and identified them as follows:

"Back row (L to R) Byron Brownson, Stephen Palmer, front row (L to R) David Clark and Eliekien Walker. 
"Also according to Mrs. Brownson, these gentlemen were the founders of the Old Huntington Fair Grounds."


Many thanks to The Valley Post Facebook page for allowing me to post this historical photo. It certainly is an interesting one!
