Need cited for sex ed at Bristol High School
Judy Gerling reports Bristol High School students have not strongly voiced a demand for sex education in the curriculum. A 1972 needs assessment of 600 participants found a critical need for sex and drug education, yet no action followed. Home Economics teacher Josephine Lero is re examining the issue for a master’s thesis and hopes to integrate family life education with parental consent.

Water taste and odor improve after delayed treatment
Bristol County water quality improved after three weeks of issues caused by runoff and thick ice. State officials credited late but effective superchlorination and noted initial capacity delays hindered earlier action. Dechlorination is not now deemed necessary.
