Joel Barlow High School

Joel Barlow High School is a public high school serving students in ninth through twelfth grades in Redding, Fairfield County, Connecticut, United States. The school serves Easton and Redding students. The school is the sole institution in the Region 9 School District of Connecticut, made up of the towns of Redding and Easton, which each have their own public school systems for education up to the eighth grade. The Board of Education acts as its own Board of Finance, and although it reports to the boards of finance in both towns, they have no control over the school budget. Each year a referendum is held on the school budget and must be passed by a majority of voters in the two towns. As of the 2024-25 school year, the school had an enrollment of 698 students and 63.08 classroom teachers (on an FTE basis), for a student–teacher ratio of 11.07. There were 60 students (8.6% of enrollment) eligible for free lunch and 16 (2.3% of students) eligible for reduced-cost lunch. For the purpose of comparison with the achievement levels of similar schools, the state Department of Education classifies schools and communities in "District Reference Groups", defined as "districts whose students' families are similar in education, income, occupation and need, and that have roughly similar enrollment". Its total minority enrollment is 13%, 6% of which are Hispanic. Joel Barlow High School (Region 9) is one of eight school districts in District Reference Group A (others are Darien, Easton, New Canaan, Redding, Ridgefield, Westport, and Wilton). It is ranked #15 within the state of Connecticut and #696 in National Rankings of Public High Schools. Notable alumni William R.

It was named in honor of the 27th Governor of the Colony of Connecticut, Jonathan Law (August 6, 1674 – November 6, 1750). Until the 1970s, the Milford Public School System continued to include two public high schools, Milford High School in the central part of the city and Jonathan Law High School on the west end of the city, but shortly after the opening of a third, Joseph A. Foran High School on the east end of the city, Milford High School was closed and converted to accommodate municipal administrative offices due to the city's diminishing student numbers.

Joshua Hempsted House

The Joshua Hempsted House is a historic house museum at 11 Hempstead Street in New London, Connecticut, built about 1678 and altered several times during the 18th century. It is one of the state's oldest surviving buildings, and provides a virtual catalog of early construction methods due to its state of preservation. The house was acquired by Connecticut Landmarks in 1937, which operates it and the adjacent 1759 Nathaniel Hempstead House as a historic house museum complex known as the Hempsted Houses. The houses have been restored to reflect a late 17th to mid 18th-century appearance, and they were listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1970. Description and history The Hempsted House is located west of downtown New London on the east side of Hempstead Street between Hope and Truman Streets. It is a 2+1⁄2-story wood-frame structure, with a side-gable roof that has two front-facing gables. The left gable projects forward of the main block, providing an enclosed vestibule on the first floor—an unusual feature for houses of the time. Window openings are generally narrow and filled with diamond-pane casement windows. The interior has exposed framing members that show the building's great age. The oldest portion of the house was three bays wide, and was a typical one-room structure with a chimney on one end. There is some disagreement by architectural historians, but it was probably built around 1678 by Joshua Hempstead, the father of local diarist Joshua Hempsted. It is one of Connecticut's oldest buildings and has long been recognized for its architectural and historical significance, having been studied by Norman Isham and Frederick Kelly, prominent early architectural historians of the region. The house escaped destruction during the 1780 Battle of Groton Heights, in which much of New London was destroyed, because the Hempsteads had prepared a large family reunion meal which was confiscated by the attacking British forces. It was used as a safe house as part of the Underground Railroad. It remained in the Hempstead family until 1937, when it was acquired by the organization now known as Connecticut Landmarks.

Yale Center for British Art

Das Yale Center for British Art (YCBA) an der Yale University befindet sich in der Innenstadt von New Haven in Connecticut und beherbergt die weltweit größte Sammlung britischer Kunst außerhalb Großbritanniens. Es wurde 1977 eröffnet, nachdem der Sammler und Yale-Absolvent Paul Mellon es 1966 der Universität stiftete. Die Sammlung deckt britische Kunst vom 15. Jahrhundert bis zur Gegenwart ab und umfasst über 2.000 Gemälde, 250 Skulpturen, 20.000 Zeichnungen und Aquarelle sowie rund 35.000 seltene Bücher und Manuskripte. Zu den Höhepunkten gehören Werke von John Constable, Joshua Reynolds und J. M. W. Turner, sowie zeitgenössische Künstler wie Yinka Shonibare und Anish Kapoor. Auch das Gebäude selbst ist eine Sehenswürdigkeit: Der Architekt Louis I. Kahn entwarf es als seine letzte architektonische Arbeit. Sein Stil ist durch offene Räume, eine durchdachte Lichtführung und minimalistische Strukturen geprägt. Das Zentrum wird seit 2023 umfangreich renoviert und soll 2025 mit einer verbesserten, energieeffizienten LED-Beleuchtung und neuen, wetterbeständigen Polycarbonat-Kuppeln wieder öffnen. Das YCBA bietet eine Fülle an akademischen und öffentlichen Ressourcen, darunter ein umfangreiches Programm an Ausstellungen, eine Referenzbibliothek und Studienräume. Besucher können viele der Werke online durchsuchen, und das angeschlossene Paul Mellon Centre in London fördert die Forschung durch Stipendien und Publikationen.

Yale Center for British Art

Yale Center for British Art är ett konstmuseum på Yaleuniversitet i New Haven i Connecticut i USA.

Konstsamlingens utgörs av omkring 2 000 målningar och tryck samt 200 skulpturer med brittisk konst från elisabetanska eran till nutid. Tyngdpunkten ligger på 1700-talet och första halvan av 1800-talet. Samlingarna innehåller verk från brittiska konstnärer och konstnärer från Nordamerika och Europa som verkat i Storbritannien. I gåvan till universitet ingick även en medel till en byggnad att förvara och visa konstverken i. Byggnaden skapades av Louis Kahn som var professor i arkitektur på Yale. Det blev hans sista byggnad och den färdigställdes 1977 tre år efter hans död.

Kennedy Mitchell Hall of Records

The Kennedy Mitchell Hall of Records is located in New Haven, Connecticut and houses many of the City of New Haven's governmental functions, including finance, vital statistics, offices of the town clerk, and public hearing rooms where city policy is debated. Building history The Hall of Records, built in 1929, was intended to be part of a larger complex of government buildings; an uncompleted end wall can be seen that was to attach it to others in the complex. Its neoclassical style differs sharply from the late-19th-century urban buildings surrounding it at the time of its construction, and from those that now neighbor it. Other New Haven landmarks built in the same architectural style include the Connecticut Savings Bank on Church Street, the former Church Street post office, and the Elm Street county courthouse. Dedication On November 13, 1981, following the death of long-time city finance Controller Kennedy Mitchell, the building was officially dedicated and named the "Kennedy Mitchell Hall of Records." Kennedy Mitchell was a member of the city government who directed the financial workings of New Haven, Connecticut under four mayoral administrations. A plaque within the building lobby states his dedication to city service and that he was one of "the most distinguished citizens of the City of New Haven, Connecticut." He was also the grandson of Connecticut Senator and Congressman William Kennedy. References
