Post reports on her fourth and final year as Summer School principal

NORWICH – When Jennifer Post talks about the highlights of her summer, she’s not talking about vacation. She’s reflecting on the success of her fourth and final year as principal of Norwich’s Summer School Program.

According to Post, 116 kindergarten through fifth grade students attended the five-week program held at Gibson throughout the month of July and into the beginning of August.

Those sixth graders are now served through a separate program offered at the Norwich Middle School.
