Jayne Snarsky, principal of North and Central elementary schools, has announced that she will retire June 30. Snarsky, 64, said she labored over the decision but finally decided she needed more time to pursue other interests. "I'd like to go to Ireland and Scotland," said Snarsky, whose husband is also retired. "We go to BC [football] games, and I'd like to go to some away games. It's more flexibility." A former teacher in Carver and Plymouth, Snarsky has worked as a principal in Abington for eight years. The district is advertising for her replacement. - C. Kalimah Redd CVS TOBACCO LICENSE SUSPENDED Caught selling tobacco to minors for the fourth time in two years, the CVS pharmacy on Ocean Street has had its tobacco license suspended by the town for 90 days. The Hess gas station on Ocean Street also failed during a February sting run by police and sponsored by the South Shore Boards of Health Collaborative/Tobacco Control Program. The station had its tobacco license suspended for a week. Gerald Maher, chairman of the Marshfield Board of Health, said on Feb. 9 that a 17-year-old girl working with police bought cigarettes at the CVS without being asked for identification to prove she is at least 18 years old. The sting involved all 30 businesses in town licensed to sell tobacco, said Maher. - [Robert Carroll] FIRST "ARTY" UP FOR GRABS The Plymouth Cultural Council will award its first arts recognition trophy, called "ARTY," during a May 6 fund-raiser at the Plymouth Yacht Club.
