Letters to the Editor The right choice
business management, with a minor in human resources. This provides me with an invaluable amount of knowledge to bring to the board.
Editor : My name is Lori Consalvo and I’m running for the Board of Education. I have served on the board for the 2018-2019 school year and have been an active part of the Plainville community. As the board liaison to Louis Toffolon school, I have attended PTO meetings, providing board updates; volunteered at school functions, and have been an active part of the Toffolon community. I have learned the details of the board’s financial budget and contract negotiations, and have worked as part of a team interviewing and hiring staff. Also, I am a dedicated community member. I volunteer for the pumpkin and balloon festivals, and serve as a lector at Our Lady of Mercy Church.
This past year has been an inspiration, and my goal is to continue the hard work on the board as a teammember and as a citizen who works for Plainville students and taxpayers. I ask for your vote on Tuesday, Sept. 10 and feel that I am the right choice to continue serving our community as a member of the school board. Vote Row B.

answer that could have been formulated in half an hour. I was given the standard three minutes to dialogue with Chairwoman Pugliese. The exchange can be found on Nutmeg TV, if you're interested. The chairwoman’s dismissive and condescending attitude and failure to give even one straight answer frustrated me. “Public servant" used to be a term used for people who are in positions of responsibility and trust. How long is too long when considering the time certain Town Council members have been in office? David Spencer

faucets, hot water heaters and washing machines. The project being considered would focus on addressing the most extreme levels of water hardness, found mostly in the southeastern section of town. The area is primarily serviced by a wellfield off Woodford Avenue. The plan Vaughan outlined would install an ion exchange system for the two wells operating there, which supply just over a quarter of the town’s water. Neighborhoods with hardness levels approaching 300 milligrams per liter would be brought to around 150 milligrams. Homes and businesses in the northern and eastern parts of the town, which are supplied by a larger wellfield near Johnson Avenue, would be minimally affected by the treatment. A 2018 customer survey found that only 44 percent of customers would be willing to pay for a rate increase for improved quality, Vaughan said.

It’s back-to-school time, for all of us The dog days of summer are over. School is back in session! The summer reprieve we adults have gotten from heavier traffic during our commutes now comes to an end. Yes, we adults also experience the ripple effect of back-to-school, whether we have kids or not. We are surrounded by those buses, drive past throngs of kids in backpacks everywhere, and see other parents’ first-dayof-school pictures on social media. It’s all such a clean, fresh start. Over summer break, students get a nice reset, knowing where they’ve been and where they need to go. The
time away separates the past from the future, accomplishments from new challenges, and last year’s pride from this year’s ambition. But never mind the kids for now. What do you get? Where is your pause, review, and reset? How do you set different stages for yourself, looking back and then forward, to make sure you’re making progress, getting better, sharper … happier? How do you plan your growth, progress and development? Is it time-based? The best examples – yet maybe not the most effective – are New Year’s resolutions. That in any given year, your goals are 1._____, 2._____, 3._____, etc. You’ve set a timetable for how and when they’re going to happen, and you

Is it project-based? It’s important to learn from the things you’re working on, creating and building. You can get sharper through what you’re sharing with others, with so many possibilities existing for what that might look like. Know what you can deliver! Is it relationship-based? It’s important to consider what it is you take away from relationships, whether they’re professional or personal. Too many people forgo growing through connections. When possible, make sure you and those you know are getting the best out of each other. Is it business- or workbased? Look for the opportunities to steadily grow in your entrepreneurial or pro-

fessional track, improving upon yourself, job after job, promotion after promotion, or move after move. Everything in your job and work can build off of those previous points above: Build yourself in that work or business during a set time period, through particular projects, and/or by building great relationships in your network. Just like kids leaving and coming back to school, how do you step away or at least step back from what you do to see where you stand and
where you have yet to go? Yes, granted, the path is more set in stone for students – their performance is monitored and curriculum disciplined. Lucky them. Once you leave school, though, it’s on you to figure out how you’re going to move from one grade of performance to the next. John M.
