Meriden officials propose new Pulaski Elementary School for former hospital site

The former Meriden-Wallingford Hospital may become the new site for Casimir Pulaski Elementary School, following a recommendation from the Meriden Board of Education. As part of its capital improvement projects, the Board of Education is considering renovating Thomas Hooker Elementary School and building a new Pulaski at 1 King Place, the former hospital, Assistant Superintendent Michael Grove said during a recent meeting. Renovations for Thomas Hooker include expanding the cafeteria, playground, auditorium and gymnasium. Plans also include adding air conditioning to all classrooms, upgrading the heating system, improving handicap accessibility with an elevator and installing new energy-efficient windows. Deputy Majority Leader Larue Graham asked the board if the building could be utilized for special education students outside the district.
