Today's riddle: What did one wall say to the other? 🤔 (Answer below!)
• Who won Monday's high school games across RI? We've got it covered (providencejournal.com) — East Providence teams were busy Monday, with boys and girls soccer and cross country all in action, including a 4–1 soccer win over North Providence and a meet scheduled at Barrington High. The roundup highlights scores and standout performances from schools across Rhode Island, while listing upcoming matchups where East Providence athletes will face North Kingstown and others later this week.
• Providence keeps losing teachers. Now they want to 'grow' their own. (providencejournal.com) — East Providence schools are part of a new, state-funded "Grow Your Own" teacher apprenticeship effort aimed at easing Rhode Island's teacher shortage and diversifying classrooms. The program helps longtime classroom aides earn full certification while working, offering tuition support and mentoring. A Providence educator's journey from teaching assistant to special education teacher shows how this pathway can stabilize staffing in urban districts like East Providence.
• 12 Nostalgic Food Destinations in the U.S. That Feel Like Another Decade (onlyinyourstate.com) — East Providence gets a nostalgic shout-out with Pazi's Place, a 1950s-themed diner complete with checkered floors, red vinyl booths, and poodle-skirted staff. It's one of a dozen retro food spots highlighted nationwide, putting a local breakfast-and-milkshake favorite on the map for road-trippers and neighbors alike.
