St. Thomas Aquinas Catholic School Third-Graders Shine as Weatherkids

I always enjoy visiting local elementary and middle schools across southwestern Connecticut every week as part of my Weatherkids program. The weekly feature is sponsored by Merit Insurance, and it is tremendously popular with teachers, students, and parents alike. The program started in 1993.

This week I met with the third-graders at St. Thomas Aquinas Catholic School in Fairfield. They enjoyed the weather experiments, trivia, and the opportunity to give the local forecast on television.
