• High school scores, stats, recaps from September 25 games in RI (newportri.com) — Barrington sports fans can celebrate a boys soccer win, with the Eagles topping Barnstable, 5-2, in a busy slate of Rhode Island high school games. The roundup also highlights standout performances in girls soccer, field hockey, and volleyball statewide, plus notes that Saturday's games were postponed or rescheduled because of the storm.
   

• Barrington School Committee candidates respond to second SRO question (eastbayri.com) — Barrington voters hear directly from two School Committee candidates on whether the district should add a second school resource officer and how they view the Town Council's decision not to sign the agreement. Both emphasize student safety, but argue resources are better spent on mental health supports, counseling, and school climate rather than another armed officer.
