For more info, call (857) 249-7882 Dan - 1972 Department and their consultants from the engineering fi rm Stantec presented their results from a Broadway Corridor Parking study to the City Council this week. The goal of the study was to fi nd ways to increase parking to promote economic development and to ease parking troubles for residents. According to Stantec consultants, there are 2,400 parking spaces on Broadway, many in private lots. The chief recommendation from the study is to direct drivers to spaces on side streets and lots behind Broadway. They proposed wayfaring signs to direct drivers to cheaper, available spaces a short distance from Broadway. City offi cials proposed creating a pool of public parking by possibly leasing space in private lots and combining it with underused space, such as the City Hall lot and Central Street lot. Spreading out available parking spaces could be combined with higher fees for parking in the core areas of Broadway, particularly during peak hours. The consultants believe Revere is poised to make those changes in part because of the parking district benefi ts fund. They suggested spending funds on sidewalk maintenance and improvements, such as landscaping, would draw drivers to side streets for cheaper parking. During their presentation, planners revealed that only 40 to 50 percent of the spaces on Broadway were utilized during the study. “If we’re only using 40 to 50 percent of our inventory, why this rush to increase the amount of parking spaces?†asked Ward 4 Councillor Paul Argenzio. Planners said the idea aligned with the Broadway corridor master plan and with eff orts to promote economic development. In a recent survey conducted in conjunction with the study, residents said they typically spend fi ve minutes searching for parking on Broadway. The City Council referred the parking study to the economic development subcommittee.

Renee Gallant Griffin spoke of how Dot’s Army came to be: “Dot’s Army was formed to celebrate the end of the battle for one of our own. At the time, members of Dot’s Army and our several fundraising volunteers expected this would be a one-and-done event. When Walk Day came, 32 of us crossed the fi nish line, among us and the most important of whom, crossed with her family by her side. Words can’t explain how it felt to witness so many brave survivors and fi ghters cross that line. This was anything but one-and-done. If you’ve ever known a person battling cancer, you know they are not the only ones in the fi ght. It takes a literal army to fi ght this disease and to keep life as normal as possible during it.†Gallant added, “The support and love Dot’s Army has received from the Revere community is the reason fundraising was so successful and how it grew to be the Dot’s Army we celebrate today. What started out as selling snacks, slush, candy, and drinks to fundraise at Griswold Field in 2018, is now a 5-year Cornhole Tournament fundraiser with almost $30,000 raised for cancer research.†Using the (supplied) QR code, you can register your team, buy a Dot’s Army t-shirt, donate and register as a walker with Dot’s Army.

The 1964 RHS Patriots, coming off a one-loss season in 1963, rolled through the first eight games of their schedule with a 7-0-1 record and were poised to face Winthrop on Thanksgiving Day in a game that would decide the Massachusetts Class B Championship. However, a shocking decision just days before Thanksgiving by the Massachusetts Secondary Schools Principals Association determined that the Revere football lineup included a player who was ineligible to compete, and Revere was forced to forfeit its first eight games. After heavy rain postponed the Thanksgiving Day kickoff to Saturday, November 28, Revere — undaunted in the face of the devastating ruling — topped Winthrop, 8-0, in a thrilling game decided in the final seconds. Revere High and Boston College graduate Brandon Brito, an assistant coach at RHS, is completing a documentary film about the 1964 saga. The September 6 ceremony that will include members of the 1964 team will be included in Brito’s film, which is currently scheduled for release on November 23. This is a chance for football fans young and old to come honor a team that exemplified grit and determination and achieved so much more than just wins on the field. Come celebrate history and be part of history yourself! Please make plans to attend Revere vs. Whittier, Friday, September 6, 2024, 6:00 p.m. kickoff.

We’re meeting new colleagues for the fi rst time; perhaps we have a new classroom neighbor or a new administrator we are working closely with. I’m sure our veteran staff will welcome our new colleagues with open arms.†The dedication and passion of teachers like Jennifer Martinez is truly inspiring. Martinez, a 2013 Revere High School graduate, will return to her hometown to teach fi rst grade ESL at Lincoln School. After graduating from Revere High, Martinez went on to Bunker Hill Community College before transferring to Lesley University and earning a degree in Children, Youth, and Family Studies with a minor in Social Work. “Upon graduating from Lesley, I felt uncertain about my career direction,†said Martinez. “I began working as a paraprofessional in Chelsea just before the COVID-19 pandemic hit. During the pandemic, I worked remotely as a paraprofessional for a kindergarten class.†In October of the 2021-2022 school year, Martinez was unexpectedly asked to take over Revere Superintendent Dr. Dianne Kelly talked with new teachers during last week’s orientation luncheon.

She received her Master’s in Teaching English as a Second Language (TESOL) in 2023 from Salem State University and spent two years teaching in a fi rst-grade foundational classroom before transitioning to a new role as a fi rst-grade ESL teacher in Chelsea in 2023. Martinez said her bilingual abilities in English and Spanish have been invaluable in working with diverse communities. Garfi eld Elementary School Principal Dr. Percy Napier welcomed new teachers to his school during last week’s orientation. “It is deeply rewarding to give back to the community I grew up in, as well as to the city where I attended middle and high school,†she said. “Supporting English language learners is a passion of mine, and I am committed to advocating for their success. I believe that language barriers should never prevent anyone from achieving their potential, and I am dedicated to being there for students who need support the most. Teaching in my hometown allows me to leverage my skills and experiences in a meaningful way, making a direct impact on students’ lives.†Martinez said that from growing up in a household where English was a second language, she understands fi rsthand the challenges of adapting to a new school environment while learning a new language. “This personal experience helps me relate to my students and empathize with their struggles,†she said. “It’s why I believe in being patient, understanding, and approaching my work with an open mind. I strive to make a positive impact on my students and serve as a resource for parents who might feel hesitant to get involved due to language barriers. I aim to be a dependable support for both students and their families.†Martinez said that, overall, coming back to teach in Revere is a way for her to merge personal ties with professional aspirations, creating a rewarding and impactful career. It’s rewarding for her to contribute to the same environment where she learned and grew. It’s evident that Revere Public Schools is attracting a diverse and talented group of educators who are eager to make a positive impact on the lives of their students, like Gary Venenga, who will teach third grade ESL at Garfield Elementary School.

Venenga came to Boston to study at Emerson College with an eye on a totally diff erent career after graduating from college. “Before becoming an educator, I was a free-lance soundman for television programs,†said Venenga. “I was based out of Venice, CA, but worked all over the world.†However, his volunteer work during this time led to his huge career switch. “Towards the end of my television career, I began to volunteer in Thailand at schools and orphanages teaching English,†said Venenga. “I eventually taught in South Korea and Thailand for many years. I earned a Master’s in Education from Framingham State; however, I attended the classes in Bangkok, Thailand.†Venenga said he looks forward to discovering Revere through its children and their families. “I love interacting with and helping kids. I love to laugh, have fun, and learn new things,†he said. Revere Mayor Patrick Keefe said the continued excitement for and investment in Revere Public Schools speaks volumes. Nancy Martel (right), who will serve as the Hill School’s new principal, talks with a new staff member. “A quality education is something that sets cities and towns apart, and this year’s hiring numbers are a testament to the continued upward trajectory of our school district,†said Keefe. “We are very happy to see that so many incredible educational professionals have found a good career fi t in Revere Public Schools, and we are excited to welcome them to our city and to introduce them to our students. This year’s group of new teacher hires is just another reminder that Revere is a vibrant, desirable, and exciting place to work.†RPS still has around 20 open positions that the district is actively recruiting for.

The Massachusetts Cannabis Commission calls for a 500-foot buffer zone from schools, but municipalities can create their own rules, exceptions and buff er zones. Buff er zones are one of the concerns raised by Councillorat-Large Michelle Kelley, who suggested a 400- or 500-foot buff er. “My main concern is we have unique zoning in Revere,†RevereTV Spotlight Elvira “Vera†Curcio in honor of their service to the City as members of the City Council.

Kelley feels that since the council is just starting to carve out an ordinance they should get it right from the start and keep marijuana in the city’s commercial districts.

This certainly helps heading in: every coach is back, and the one replacement the Patriots needed is a super successful winter sports coach who’s a familiar fall-season face. Ariana Rivera, who led the girls basketball program to a terrifi c 14-6 season last winter in just her fi rst season as head coach, makes another debut as she takes over as the girls soccer coach this fall. Serving as an assistant on the soccer fi eld last fall, she replaces Megan O’Donnell, who decided to focus on softball coaching alone. Last fall, O’Donnell’s Patriots went 161-1 last winter. All told: a solid group of returning coaches and one solid newcomer for the Patriots this fall. Athletics Director Frank Shea said the familiarity within the coaching staff is expected to play a signifi cant role in his fall teams’ success. With only one new coaching appointment, Shea expressed confi - dence in the stability and continuity of the program, which OBITUARIES Joseph Bertolino A longtime Revere resident passed away on August 20th, following a long illness at 88 years of age.

There were no roll calls in the House or Senate last week. $650,000 FOR MICROLOANS TO BUSINESSES (H 4800) House 155-2, overrode Gov. Healey’s veto of $650,000 (reducing funding from $1.5 million to $850,000) for loans to small businesses. The Senate did not act on the veto so the veto stands and the $650,000 was eliminated. “I am reducing this item to the amount projected to be necessary due to the availability of alternative resources,†said Gov. Healey in her veto message. “This operating funding overlaps with alternative capital funding in the fi scal year 2025 Capital Investment Plan intended to support this purpose. Specifi cally, capital grants for Community Development Financial Institutions will be utilized to complement this funding in support of small businesses and microbusinesses.†(A “Yes†vote is for the $650,000. A “No†vote is against it.) Rep. Jessica Giannino Yes Rep. Jeff Turco Yes $7.5 MILLION FOR PROGRAMS TO ENCOURAGE STATE COLLEGE GRADUATES TO BECOME PUBLIC SCHOOL TEACHERS (H 4800) House 134-24, overrode Gov. Healey’s veto of $7.5 million (reducing funding from $10 million to $2.5 million) for programs to encourage graduates of the state’s public colleges to work as public school teachers. The Senate did not act on the veto so the veto stands and the $7.5 million was eliminated. “I am reducing this item to the amount projected to be necessary,†said Gov. Healey in her veto message. “The amount as adjusted here, in combination with the available balance from fi scal year 2024, is suffi cient to meet projected demand and result in no reduction to fi scal year 2025 spending for this item.†(A “Yes†vote is for the $7.5 million. A “No†vote is against it.) Rep. Jessica Giannino Yes Rep. Jeff Turco Yes $875,000 FOR COLLEGE AND CAREER READINESS PROGRAM (H 4800) House 154-4, overrode Gov. Healey’s veto of the entire $875,000 for a statewide college and career readiness program implemented by JFYNetWorks, a nonprofi t corporation, to provide online instructional curricula to help students meet the Massachusetts state standards at each grade level and reduce learning loss and achievement gaps. The program would also prepare students for required assessments and college placement tests in middle school and high school. The Senate did not act on the veto so the veto stands and the $875,000 was eliminated. “I am vetoing this item because it is not consistent with my House [budget] recommendation,†said Gov. Healey in her veto message. (A “Yes†vote is for the $875,000. A “No†vote is against it.) Rep. Jessica Giannino Yes Rep. Jeff Turco Yes ALSO UP ON BEACON HILL MATERNAL HEALTH (H 4999) — Gov. Healey signed into law a maternal health bill that would require certifi ed professional midwives and lactation consultants to be licensed; encourage the creation of more freestanding birth centers; establish a grant program to address maternal mental health and substance use disorder; expand the statewide universal postpartum home visiting program; and mandate that insurers provide coverage for postpartum depression and major depressive disorder screenings for perinatal individuals. “Massachusetts is home to the best health care, but there was work to be done to improve birth options and health equity for families across the state,†said Gov. Healey. “These important expansions in the law will help make it both safer and easier to start and grow a family here in Massachusetts, while making sure that women can make the best health care decisions for themselves.†“Massachusetts is renowned for its world-class hospitals and health care facilities, and this legislation builds on that legacy by prioritizing maternal health care needs and providing expanded childbirth options for the commonwealth’s residents,†said House Minority Leader Rep. Brad Jones (R-North Reading). “In addition to creating a formal licensing process for certifi ed professional midwives and lactation consultants, this legislation will off er expectant parents access to a wide range of services to ensure a successful pregnancy and childbirth, including universal postpartum home visits and postpartum depression screenings.†“I am proud that this important legislation will take positive steps toward addressing the disparities in maternal healthcare,†said Sen. Patrick O’Connor (R-Weymouth). “Strengthening access to physical and mental health in Massachusetts will provide a more inclusive support system that keeps parents and children healthy as they embark on their new journey. Every single family in our commonwealth deserves high quality care and support. Not only are we safeguarding the health of new families, but also laying a stronger foundation for future generations.†“These investments are part of our commitment across agencies to eliminate disparities in maternal health care that have led to worse outcomes in some communities and for people of color — especially Black birthing people,†said Health and Human Services Secretary Kate Walsh. “We are taking specifi c steps in designated communities to support the most disproportionately impacted residents and help provide much needed access to equitable perinatal and postpartum care.†EARLY IN-PERSON VOTING IS OPEN FROM SATURDAY, AUGUST 24 THROUGH FRIDAY, AUGUST 30 — Early in-person voting in the upcoming September 3 state primaries kicked off Saturday, August 24 and runs through Friday, August 30.

The grants are awarded through the Mosaic Opioid Recovery Partnership, a new grant program designed to support underserved communities and populations that have experienced a high rate of opioid-related overdose deaths. “Too many Massachusetts families have been devastated by the impacts of substance use disorder and we have been doing everything in our power to reduce overdoses and save lives,†said Gov. Healey. “These awards underscore our commitment to equitable access to necessary resources for prevention, recovery and treatment programs in communities disproportionately impacted by the opioid epidemic.†“These grants ensure that opioid settlement funds are invested in community organizations that are working at the grassroots level but face challenges in competing for grant funding,†said Undersecretary of Health Kiame Mahaniah. “We’re hopeful that these diverse organizations will now have the ability to build on their substance use disorder programming while centering the voices of the community they know so well and who have been directly impacted by the overdose crisis.†MBTA’S INCOME-ELIGIBLE REDUCED FARE PROGRAM BEGINS ON SEPTEMBER 4 — The MBTA announced that expanded access to reduced fares for income-eligible riders begins on Wednesday, September 4, 2024.

HOW LONG WAS LAST WEEK’S SESSION? Beacon Hill Roll Call tracks the length of time that the House and Senate were in session each week. Many legislators say that legislative sessions are only one aspect of the Legislature’s job and that a lot of important work is done outside of the House and Senate chambers. They note that their jobs also involve committee work, research, constituent work and other matters that are important to their districts.

Dear Savvy Senior, What are the early signs and symptoms of diabetes? I’m 60 years old, and in pretty good shape, but was just diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. What did I miss? Diabetic Dan Dear Dan, The signs and symptoms of type 2 diabetes can be so mild that many people miss them. That’s why testing is so important. Here’s what you should know. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention more than 38 million Americans have diabetes today, and another 97 million have prediabetes, but many of them don’t even know they have it. Type 2 diabetes is a disease that develops slowly over decades. Most people have prediabetes for a long time before the disease becomes full-blown diabetes, and even then, it progresses gradually. Diabetes occurs when your blood glucose, also called blood sugar, is too high. This excess blood sugar damages blood vessels and aff ects circulation, putting you at risk for a host of ailments, from heart attack and stroke to blindness, kidney failure and nerve damage. Signs and Symptoms So how can you tell if you have diabetes? The earliest signs, which are usually subtle, including urinating more frequently (often at night), being thirster and hungrier than usual, weight loss without trying, feeling very tired, having dry itchy skin and blurry vision. And the symptoms that can indicate advanced diabetes and long-term damage has occurred includes cuts or sores that heal slowly, having more infections than usual, and pain or numbness in your feet or legs. Who Should Get Tested? Because prediabetes typically causes no outward symptoms, and the signs of early type 2 diabetes can easily be missed, the only way to know for sure if you have it is to get a blood test. Everyone age 45 years or older should consider getting tested for diabetes, especially if you are overweight with a body mass index (BMI) above 25. See CDC.gov/bmi to calculate your BMI. If you are younger than 45 but are overweight, or have high blood pressure, a family history of diabetes, or belong to an ethnic group (Latino, Asian, African or Native American) at high risk for diabetes, you should get checked too. To help you determine your risk for diabetes, the American Diabetes Association (ADA) has a quick, online risk test you can take for free at Diabetes.org/ risk-test. Diabetes Tests There are three diff erent tests your doctor can give you to diagnosis diabetes. The most common is the “fasting plasma glucose test,†which requires an eight-hour fast before you take it. There’s also the “oral glucose tolerance test†to see how your body processes sugar, and the “hemoglobin A1C test†that measures your average blood sugar over the past three months. It can be taken anytime regardless of when you ate. Most private health insurance plans and Medicare cover diabetes tests, however, if you’re reluctant to visit your doctor to get tested, an alternative is to go to the drug store, buy a blood glucose meter and test yourself at home. They cost around $20. If you fi nd that you are prediabetic or diabetic, you need to see your doctor to develop a plan to get it under control. In many cases lifestyle changes like losing weight, exercising, eating a healthy diet and cutting back on carbohydrates may be all you need to do to get your diabetes under control. For others who need more help, many medications are available. For more information on diabetes and prediabetes or to fi nd help, join a lifestyle change program recognized by the CDC (CDC.gov/diabetes-prevention). These programs offer in-person and online classes in more than 1,500 locations throughout the U.S. Send your senior questions to: Savvy Senior, P.O.

The girls’ soccer team had an impressive season, and with Rivera at the helm, there’s optimism that they can replicate or even surpass that success. “She had a fantastic fi rst year as the head coach of the basketball team, and we’re hoping she can bring that same energy and success to the soccer fi eld,†Shea added. As for the boys’ soccer team, the program continues to thrive with strong participation numbers. Shea reported that the team is seeing numbers in the mid to high 70s, a testament to the sport’s popularity among students. Revere went 9-3-3 last fall and brings back Coach Manuel Lopes. “We’ve always had solid numbers for boys’ soccer, and this year is no diff erent,†Shea said. “We expect even more to join once the freshmen get settled in.†Football, another cornerstone of Revere High School’s athletic program, is also poised for a strong season.

The football team opens at home with a non-leaguer against Whittier Tech of Haverhill on Friday, Sept. 6 at 6 p.m. Coach Lou Cicatelli is hoping the team can be victorious or at least very competitive in the fi rst couple of weeks, with that early success setting the tone for the rest of the season. However, Shea acknowledged that football participation is currently slightly lower than usual, with about 46 to 48 players as of the beginning of practices, compared to the typical mid-50s.

Shea said the team is usually a little light when practices start but could get some player arrivals post-Labor Day and spike to the mid-50s. The golf team, which operates as a co-op with Malden High School, also continues to show promise. Despite being a relatively small team, with numbers in the teens, Shea is pleased with the level of participation, particularly for an urban school. They won the Greater Boston League championship last fall. “For an urban school, I think that’s a decent number,†he remarked. The co-op with Malden allows Revere students to practice at diff erent locations and gain valuable experience, which is benefi cial for their development, according to Shea. While many teams are thriving, some challenges remain, particularly with the crosscountry program. Shea mentioned that the team has struggled with participation in recent years, and this season is no diff erent. “We’d like to get 15 if we can, but that’s been a struggle the last couple of years,†Shea admitted, indicating that the school is still working to boost participation in this sport. Despite the challenges, Shea is pleased with the overall stability heading into the new school year. Looking beyond Revere High School, Shea reported that the Greater Boston League remains stable, with no major changes expected for the upcoming season. “Everything seems to be in place,†Shea confirmed, noting that the only significant change is a new athletic director at Lynn Classical. The stability of the GBL is another positive sign for the upcoming season, as it means that Revere High School’s teams can focus on their performance without worrying about disruptions or changes in the league. ~ School Bus Drivers Wanted ~ 7D Licensed School Bus Drivers Malden Trans is looking for reliable drivers for the new school year.
