PAWTUCKET – Wanting to help the Tolman High School Class of 2021 enjoy the last few weeks of their high school careers, class advisers and members of the class are hosting their first fundraiser in more than a year this weekend.
The class will hold a car wash in the driveway at Tolman, 150 Exchange St. in Pawtucket, this Saturday, May 15, from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. in an effort to raise money for prom, slated for June 3. Funds will help students who can’t afford the event, said Heather Hopkins, co-adviser for the Class of 2021.
“Our goal is to help the senior class have the best night possible after a rough year and send them off the best way we can,” Hopkins told The Breeze. “They’ve had a rough year. We’re hoping to end it a lot nicer than it started.”

Passive house design is like organic food, said Amy Hinkely, of the University of Maine architecture program and moderator of an Earth Day panel that discussed the status of he panel moderator. It was once hippy, but now it s mainstream. I didn t exepct to see the development and scale of passive house that s occurred over the past 10 to 12 years, said Matt O Malia, of OPAL and GO Logic, of Belfast, which designed Maine s first passive house building, a small dorm on the Unity College Campus.
