NORWICH – Even though individuals who are interested in vying for the three vacancies on the Norwich City School District’s board of education have until April 28 to submit their petitions, the Parent Teacher Student Association is already organizing an event which will give community members a chance to learn more about their choices.

At 6 p.m. on Thursday, May 13, the PTSA will host its annual Meet the Candidates Night in Room 1 at the Norwich High School. The event will give each potential board member the chance to respond to questions related to their candidacy and issues faced by the district. Last year, District Attorney Joseph McBride moderated the session.

According to President Victoria Mitchell, the PTSA is reaching out to school staff and community members for their assistance in forming the questions which will be asked of each candidate.
