Tonight's meeting will be at 7:30 at Cary Hall, a change in venue announced today.

School officials notified Estabrook Elementary School parents today around noon that school will be closed on Thursday at Estabrook, following reports of higher-than-recommended polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) levels in the air.
The school will remain closed through the holiday weekend, as Friday, Sept. 3 and Monday, Sept. 6 were previously scheduled days off for students.
Parents were notified of Thursday's school closure in a Global Connect e-mail sent out by school officials on Wednesday, according to school officials.
