Daily Five: Snow Returns Overnight, Hero Teacher Honored and Brewster Learns About MLK

1. What's the Weather? Mostly cloudy, with a high near 41. Tonight: Snow, mainly after 1 a.m. Low around 33. Snow accumulation of 1 to 2 inches possible.

2. School Renamed After Hero Teacher Stratford's Town Council on Monday night approved a proposal to rename HoneySpot Elementary School after Victoria Soto, the 27-year-old teacher who died while protecting her students at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown last month.

Soto, who grew up in Stratford, was formerly a student teacher at Brewster Elementary School in Durham.

3. MLK and Movie Making at Brewster Could Brewster School's first graders be the next nominees for the Golden Globes or Academy Awards? Students in Elizabeth Burns' first grade class are busy making movies about Martin Luther King, Jr.

Students are researching MLK's life, collecting data and making their own movie about their "dreams" and hopes for the future of Brewster School.

5. Selectmen's Winter Warm-Up Canceled

The Selectmen’s Winter Warm Up, which was scheduled for Saturday, January 19th, has been canceled. Unfortunately we underestimated how busy folks are this time of year. We appreciate the opportunity to raise awareness of the need for local fuel assistance and are very grateful for the donations we have received through this effort. We will continue to look for other opportunities to grow the Interchurch Fuel Assistance Fund which provides assistance to local families in need. Thank you for your support of all of our social programs.
