Slots Parlor Proposed Off Rt. 117
By Nancy Arsenault
Think Rt. 117 traffic is bad now? What if there were traffic heading to and from a slots parlor near the Leominster Super Wal-Mart? This location is one of three vying for the state’s single slots parlor license to be awarded in late December. The other two candidates are offering proposals in Plainville and Raynham at former racetracks.

NEASC Committee Chair and NRHS Social Studies Teacher Leo Sakellarion gave a detailed report on what the high school is doing to prepare for this crucial time period. “To say that it is the gold standard of accreditation is an understatement,” Sakellarion declared, with 650 New England schools claiming NEASC membership.
