(Lawrenceburg, Ind.) - St. Lawrence School will host its annual open house this year – with a twist. This year’s presentation will be held virtually on February 4, 2021 from 6:30 p.m. to 7 p.m. Key school leadership will be presenting an overview of the school and curriculum as well as be on hand to answer questions and provide information for interested families.
“In these unprecedented times, we knew we still wanted to provide a space for families interested in learning more about our amazing school but to do so in a way that keeps our students and our community safe,” said Principal Robert Detzel. “St. Lawrence is a special place and is dedicated to the safety and success of our students – both current and future.”

FALMOUTH Town Moderator David Vieira has again continued the recessed Falmouth annual town meeting.
Vieira has scheduled the meeting to reconvene at 7 p.m. Aug. 22 at the Lawrence School auditorium, according to a declaration posted Thursday.
The first session of town meeting, held June 22, voted on seven of the 49 articles in the original town warrant, with plans to reconvene 30 days later to vote on the remaining articles.
The meeting was scheduled to reconvene July 22, but after consulting with the chairwoman of the Falmouth Select Board and Health Agent Scott McGann, Vieira determined that the coronavirus public health emergency would prevent town meeting members from attending, according to the declaration.
Two Falmouth Police Department officers were promoted to the rank of sergeant last month. Patrolmen Elvira Ferrer and Ryan Hergt began their new supervisory duties on December 21.
Sgt. Hergt joined the department in 2015 and became the school resource officer two years later. Until that post is filled, he is pulling double duty as sergeant and school resource officer.

He said working in the schools taught him about problem-solving and made him a better officer.
âThe schools do such a great job in finding ways to help the students,â he said. âA lot of what we do in the department is black and white, and I have learned through our partnerships with the DAâs office, Falmouth Human Services and other organizations, how to find the best result for some of these kids that does not just end with sending them to court for traditional discipline.â
