It’s National School Bus Safety Week! 🛑 🚌

Whether you're driving through a city street or a rural road, help keep students safe. Slow down in school zones, stay alert when children are nearby, and always come to a complete stop when a school bus extends its stop sign.

Thanks to Stafford Public Schools for the important reminder. Let’s all do our part to keep kids safe on their journey to and from school. 💛

Bikes. Movies. . Yep, it’s been that kind of week! 🚲🎬🤖

We brought people together to talk (shout-out to the Town of West Hartford, CT for hosting), joined the Town of East Granby Selectperson Hayes/Thompson for East Granby for a conversation about Connecticut’s film industry, and partnered with Novus Insight to help municipal leaders navigate AI policy.

Lots of topics. Lots of ideas. Lots of great conversations. Now, let’s get to the photos! 📸👇
