Wilton Warrior Words: The little things Justin Rosenthal FacebookTwitterEmail Justin RosenthalHearst Connecticut Media Back in September, I wrote my first column for the Wilton Bulletin. Overwhelmed by the inevitably of adulthood, and, accordingly, the demise of my childhood, I wrote this piece about these fears. Well, good news: I have been surviving adulthood for the past six-and-a-half months! Yet, as graduation draws uncomfortably close, I have begun to realize that perhaps adulthood itself was not the thing I feared; it was the idea that the end of my Wilton Public Schools career was already in sight.

I cannot overstate how grateful I am to have the opportunity to learn these languages in Wilton. It is common knowledge that Latin and Ancient Greek are dead languages, but, unfortunately, they are dying school subjects, too. In addition to fewer and fewer schools around the country offering courses in these languages, fewer and fewer students in Wilton are actually taking advantage of this unique opportunity. If, during my freshman year, I were asked why I de ....
