Hoosac Valley Elementary Unveils New Sign

The school community gathered Friday morning on the school's front lawn.

ADAMS, Mass. — On Friday morning the Hoosac Valley Elementary School community gathered on the school's lawn to welcome the school's first sign.

Nearly seven years ago, Cheshire Elementary School and CT Plunkett Elementary School joined together to become Hoosac Valley Elementary School. After the closing of Cheshire Elementary School, the school district voted to rename CT Plunkett as Hoosac Valley Elementary School. 

"At HVES, we share the importance of identity and belonging in every classroom as part of our Responsive Classroom approach," Principal Erin Beaulac said in a statement Friday. "Every student is called by their name and everyone is a part of our community. With that being said, we felt it was very important for our school's exterior to match our school's interior. There hasn't been a sign of the school's name on the outside of the building. This morning, all of that changed."

Letter: Christine Hoyt for Selectman

Letter to the Editor

To the Editor:

Christine Hoyt is the only option for Adams.

Over the past few years, Christine Hoyt has consistently shown what real commitment to our town looks like. She puts in the time, does the work, and shows up for this community again and again. What stands out most to me is her attitude. She is unrelentingly positive, solutions-oriented, and focused on moving Adams forward.

Local leadership matters, and it requires collaboration, energy, and a genuine belief in the future of our town. Christine brings all of that and more. She works harder for Adams than anyone I've met, and it shows in everything she does.

At a time when it would be easy to fall into negativity, I truly believe we need leaders who are focused on progress, not division. Christine is exactly that kind of leader.

If you care about the direction of Adams, I hope you'll consider supporting Christine Hoyt for Board of Selectmen!
