Gov. Ned Lamont last week appointed Mark F. Kohler of North Haven, the former head of the special litigation unit for the Connecticut attorney general’s office, to complete the term of Secretary of the State Denise Merrill.

The promotion of Scott Bates, the deputy secretary

High school Key Club earns national honor for volunteer efforts

DECADES OF SERVICE

Recently, the North Haven High School Key Club received an award from the National Garden Club in the Distinguished Service Project category.

Deputy Chief Stanley F. Lofquist retired from the North Haven Police Department on June 24 after 40 years of service. Throughout his career, Lofquist was a member of the NHPD SWAT Team, Traffic Division, Professional Standards Division, Investigative Services Division and Uniformed Services Division. During his time on the force, Lofquist also held the rank of Sergeant, Lieutenant and Captain, and his police work was recognized with Letters of Recognition, Certificates of Meritorious Service and Unit Citations. “Over the past 40 years he has worked alongside, mentored and supervised dozens of police officers. His history of the department, institutional knowledge, and particular sense of humor, will be difficult to replace,” the department stated in a social media post. “We wish him a long, happy and healthy retirement.” NHPD, Facebook

Merrill, who announced a year ago she would not seek a fourth term, resigned effective at noon Thursday, June 30. Kohler will take office on Monday, July 11 and remain until the winner of the November election takes office in January.

Attorney General William Tong, who succeeded Jepsen, said Kohler is wellsuited to walk into the office in election season, calling him “the definition of calm under pressure.” “He is an unflappable manager who oversaw the deluge of litigation defending our election laws and executive orders during COVID-19,” Tong said in a tweet. “He has been for many years one of the leading constitutional lawyer in our state.”

Your hearing is important and you want to be able to hear everything that matters to you.

North Haven’s Teacher of the Year Tricia Harkins poses with North Haven High School Principal Dr. Russell Dallai. Nicole Zappone, The Citizen

Teacher of the Year once pondered a career in law By Nicole Zappone The Citizen

North Haven High School teacher Tricia Harkins is the district's Teacher of Year. “From a very young age, I remembered wanting to reach out to others and be there for others who are not always understood by their peers in the classroom,” Harkins said. “Making them understand

that they were very much understood, loved and cared for brought me a lot of happiness.” Harkins attended Catholic University in Washington D.C., graduating with a degree in political science and a minor in history. “I was either going to go to law school or become a teacher,” she said.

Working at a daycare soon after graduation, Harkins made up her mind. She remembers telling friends: “It’s not law school, it’s kids.”

CALL US and we will cater your next event!

So Harkins returned home to Connecticut and furthered her education at the University of New Haven, where she earned a master’s in elementary education.

Impressed with her work, Montowese Principal Tony Mancini would hire Harkins as a fifth-grade teacher. “I loved it and it was so much fun,” Harkins said of her first classroom job. From there, Harkins piled up a few more college credits to earn the dual certification needed to teach at the high school level. The new mother then taught history, parttime, at North Haven High School before taking another position in town, at Clintonville Elementary School, where she taught first grade. Later, with elementary school positions on the budgetary chopping block, Harkins returned to NHHS to teach history. “I didn’t want one of my friends to get the pink slip of losing her job," Harkins said.
