CHS and the Social Studies Department hosted a Candidate's Forum today in the Distance Learning Lab for the five candidates running for the Board of Selectmen. John Bonnanzio, Avril Elkort, Kevin Feeney, Gene Manning and Mark Porter all had a chance to address why there were running and took a number of questions from the students in the audience.
After opening statements by each of the candidates, students were able to bring up a number of topics that were pertinent to the citizens of Canton. Some of these topics included the traffic issues in town, the repair work needed at the hockey rink, housing issues and the Plymouth Rubber project.
The event was a great way for our students to be involved in the electoral process and gave the candidates a wonderful forum to share their ideas with some of the town's newest voters.
A big thanks to social studies teachers, Mr. Jay Turner and Mr. David Hiltz for helping moderate and organize the event.
