Pembroke School is continuing its fundraising efforts to build the district’s first accessible playground for students.  Advocates to date have raised nearly $29,000 toward the goal of $150,000. They plan to replace an existing playground with limited features for students with disabilities. The new design will feature ADA-approved equipment, such as wide bridges and equipment that is lower to the ground.   Other schools in the district, as well as members of the community, are working together to support the construction of the Pembroke Playground. The athletic department at Danbury High School allowed Pembroke to collect donations at home football games, while King Street Intermediate raised $100 from bottle deposits. Elementary schools, Stadley Rough and Park Avenue, have also donated: The Kindness and Compassion Club at Stadley Rough donated $300, while Park Avenue established a penny collection, “Pennies for Pembroke.”
