AGP Executive Report

Last update: 11 hours ago

North Stonington Schools: Wheeler High’s Class of 2026 is graduating with a standout duo—valedictorian Kaelin Rose and salutatorian Jada Overmoyer—who balanced academics with sports and community volunteering. Education & Identity in the Spotlight: In a tense Congressional hearing, Chicago Public Schools CEO Macquline King faced questions on gender and sexuality policies, while Republicans pressed CPS on DEI and transgender student protections. Connecticut Hate-Crime Enforcement: Gov. Ned Lamont signed legislation strengthening Connecticut’s ability to investigate and prosecute hate crimes, with local law enforcement backing the changes. Reproductive Rights in the Public Eye: A giant inflatable IUD, “Freeda (Womb),” rolled into Tucson to spotlight contraception rights after Griswold v. Connecticut—an echo of the national fight over access. Local Housing Organizing: Meriden tenants and housing rights advocates protested a landlord’s planned rent hikes, pushing for recognition of a newly formed tenants union. CT Education Data: New reporting shows Waterbury’s American Indian or Alaska Native student enrollment is just 0.4% of the district—highlighting how underrepresented some groups remain. Performing Arts: Eugene O’Neill’s final play, A Moon for the Misbegotten, is headed to Town Hall Theatre in Galway this fall as part of an Ireland-in-America theme.
