Today, Superintendent Dr. Vázquez Matos (Dr. V) made history! He is the 1st Connecticut Superintendent to ride in an electric airplane. This is thanks to Mr. Paul Pelletier, who directs the Middletown Aerospace program. While at Brainard Airport, Dr. V, accompanied by Assistant Superintendents Stacey McCann & Jen Cannata, Director of Communications Jessie Lavorgna, & Assistant to the Superintendent Joyce Carey, toured Aquiline Drones, an enormously successful Black-owned, small, and innovative Aerospace business based in Connecticut. To wrap it all up, they visited with a group of MPS students participating in a free weeklong aerospace workshop with Mr. Pelletier. A great day of learning and adventure. ¡Hoy, el Superintendente Dr. Vázquez Matos (Dr. V) hizo historia! Es el primer superintendente de Connecticut en viajar en un avión eléctrico.

Take a look at a typical day in The Innovation Center at Beman Middle School. 6th grade students in Mr. Yearwood's science classes wrapped up their life science unit by using technology to mimic bee behavior. The students programmed Spheros (coding robots) to travel to paths to different pictures of flowers spread out on the floor, simulating the path bees take as they pollinate. Lots of critical thinking and problem solving, mixed with fun!
