• Granby May Go Further On Student Cellphones (patch.com) — Granby school officials are tightening how students use both artificial intelligence tools and cellphones, with clear rules against plagiarism, privacy violations, and misuse in grades six through twelve. The district's new strategic plan calls for detailed AI and screen-time guidelines, and leaders are also debating whether Granby Memorial High School's current classroom-only phone rule should be expanded.
• CT man who shot bear killing his animals sees charges dropped (newsbreak.com) — A Granby resident who shot a black bear that killed his goats and chickens on his property will not face prosecution, after state officials decided pursuing the case wasn't in the interest of justice. The outcome highlights how Connecticut's bear-protection laws apply to pets and livestock, and may spur further debate in Granby about how homeowners can legally defend their animals.
• GametimeCT's 2026 CIAC field hockey midseason predictions (trumbulltimes.com) — Granby Memorial's field hockey team is again pegged as a top Class S contender, with analysts predicting North Branford to edge them in this year's CIAC championship. After last season's narrow 3–2 title loss and a strong current start, Granby is firmly in the statewide conversation, giving local fans plenty to watch as November's tournament approaches.
