2018

Administrators at Stonington (CN) Public Schools removed George Orwell’s classic novel from the 8th-grade language arts curriculum. No official reason was given about why the book was removed from the group of “anchor books,” which caused much upset in the community. Despite multiple comments at board meetings and heated protests from a Mystic Middle School teacher, the book is limited to supplemental status.
