The United Way of West Central Connecticut, serving the communities of Bristol, Burlington, Plymouth, and Plainville, will hold its 17th annual
Day of Caring on Friday, May 16th and Saturday, May 17th in Plainville this year. In response to Dr. William Petit’s appeal to the public, the Plainville Community and the United Way are inviting you to join us for a
Call to Serve: "go forward and help a neighbor, love your families, and fight for a cause." The annual
Day of Caring has been expanded to include Saturday, May 17th in an effort to involve local children and families as volunteers in a variety of community projects. The deadline for volunteer registration is May 8th.

We welcome the 2007-2008 school year with much excitement and anticipation. This school year brings many new opportunities and new beginnings. From kindergarteners taking the initial steps on their educational path and students joining us in Plainville for the first time, to new faculty and staff members eager to teach, guide and inspire, there are endless possibilities as our educational journey continues. As Superintendent, it is my privilege to lead our school district in Plainville and I welcome the opportunity to work with students, parents, administrators, faculty, staff, business leaders, and the community this year as we join together to support Plainville's youth through our vision to "promote a challenging environment creating an extraordinary community of learners."
Plainville Community Schools has named Plainville High School Technology Education Instructor David Gaignard the 2007-2008 Teacher of the Year. Gaignard has served as a Technology Education teacher in Plainville for six years. Under his direction, the communications program has grown to include a video production studio, a video control room, graphics and audio rooms, and an Internet radio station.
