BRIDGEPORT, Conn.:  Pullman & Comley, LLC has launched “Education Law Notes,” a blog devoted to legal issues affecting public school districts, private schools, colleges and universities, the law firm announced today.  It can be found at http://schoollaw.pullcomblog.com/.

“Education Law Notes” alerts readers to, and provide insights on, new developments within the highly-regulated field of education law.  Educational institutions face legal issues across a broad scope of topics, including academics, labor and employment, free speech, disability rights, gender equality, school safety, finance, bullying, immigration, social media, religious freedom, school governance and administrative policies and procedures.   Articles on the blog will address these topics and will also include posts from other areas that affect educational institutions, boards of education and superintendents ranging from environmental regulation and energy savings to legislative session updates.

The articles in “Education Law Notes” will be authored by attorneys in Pullman & Comley’s School Law Practice including William R. Connon, Michael P. McKeon, Zachary D. Schurin, Susan L. Scott, John P. Shea, Jr. and Mark J.
