We’ve followed the story on this new school from Day One. The prolonged and heated debate about closing the old Rogers, breaking ground on Blachley Road, construction crews working, the “green” concept and teachers moving in. But today the story really began with the first official day of school. Our story, written by Kate King, will focus on two students in the new sixth grade, one a Rogers veteran and the other an out of district student from Norwalk. Look for it online and in Wednesday’s Advocate.
