(Shutterstock) CONNECTICUT — School staff, churches, veterans and bars all stand to benefit from the latest executive order signed Thursday by Gov. Ned Lamont. It is the 89th such order issued by the governor since the start of the coronavirus health crisis in the state last March. The new executive order requires local and regional boards of education to continue to provide two weeks of paid leave (or equivalent for part-time staffers) for school district employees who had to miss work because they were required to self-quarantine due to COVID-19.
