You do a great job covering education. I enjoyed reading many of the stories you presented. Yours is one of the best papers that conscientiously presents what is good and noteworthy about public education.

Mentors ‘Irreplaceable’ for Women in STEM

To the Editor:

I enjoyed reading your article and I cannot agree more about encouraging women to focus on math and science. The Northboro Junior Woman’s Club is sponsoring a Woman & Science seminar for middle school girls with women presenters and interactive workshops. Do you have any ideas for funding such a seminar? Thank you.

I have a friend who is currently an inmate at Ft. Dix Federal Correctional Institute, in NJ. Is there any educational opportunity available that he can use in his mentoring program designed to reduce recidivism? Any info would be appreciated.

I’d appreciate someone to reply with some information regarding my son in prison. He has 3 years and is interested in making the best out of the situation by utilizing his time by getting an education. He has his high school diploma. Thank you.
