Musician Hits The Right Note: Newington Star Student
We all know students who excel in academic, fine arts or volunteer service. Here's one local resident who is having an impact in Newington.

NEWINGTON, CT — Star Students are found in classrooms, on concert and theater stages and at debate lecterns, and out in the community doing good things to make life better for all of us.
Here at Patch, we've launched an initiative to help recognize Star Students, and we’re working to tell the stories of these outstanding kids to their neighbors.
This submission comes from Janet Kirkby who nominated a member of her family, Dylan of Newington.
