Kim Killoy, grant coordinator for the Newtown Prevention Council, has notified The Newtown Bee that she is postponing the Council's Parent Speaker Series event featuring school climate and bullying prevention expert Jo Ann Freiberg.

That talk was set for this Wednesday, March 19, at Newtown Middle School.

Ms Killoy said that after much discussion and projected low attendance for the event, it was felt that parents would be more inclined to attend a similar activity in the Fall.

Once the event has been rescheduled, The Bee will publish any new information and details about the time and location.
