There just wasn’t enough room to accommodate everyone who showed up at the Target Parking lot in Saugus. “We had to turn away quite a few cars because … safety regulations wouldn’t allow us to put any more cars in that one lot,” said Saugus Police Officer Domenic Montano, one of the event’s organizers.

The highlight of Saturday’s event was the presentation of a special gift to retired K9 Police Officer Tim Fawcett and recognition of his late K9 Bruin. K9 Bruin died of cancer in March. Officer Fawcett retired from the department four months later. “Timmy is a community hero and so was K9 Bruin … We had a couple of thousand people turn out for the event. And I believe a lot of them came because of Timmy,” Montano said. During a special ceremony, Fawcett received a framed Boston Bruins jersey with “K9 BRUIN” inscribed on the back. The jersey was accompanied by a letter signed by the 2018-19 Boston Bruins team that came within one game of winning the NHL’s Stanley Cup.

DeRuosi welcomes new teachers to the ground level of Saugus Public Schools’ “total revamp” as a new year begins By Mark E. Vogler S augus Public Schools Superintendent Dr. David DeRuosi, Jr. told about two dozen new educators that the future is now for a school district that faces a “total revamp.” “You’re here at ground level,” DeRuosi said in brief, but passionate remarks to lead off an orientation session on Wednesday (Aug. 28) hosted by Veterans Memorial Elementary School. “Hopefully, you will stay with us and you will grow with us,” he told the new teachers and classroom staff. DeRuosi touted new programs, new facilities and new technology as he declared it “an excellent time to come to Saugus.” Most of those who drove through or into town for the orientation passed by the construction site of the new Saugus Middle-High School that is expected to be ready in time to accommodate Middle School students in grades 6 through 8 next spring. The area that will serve as the new High School is expected to be complete this time next year as the 2020-21 academic year begins. Meanwhile, faculty and staff prepared for next Wednesday’s opening (Sept. 4) when students in grades 1 to 12 return. School begins for the Kindergarten students next Thursday (Sept. 5) and next Friday (Sept. 6). Orientation is on Sept. 4; school begins with half days for Sept. 5 and 6; pre-K classes begin on Sept. 9. “This is big for this community,” DeRuosi told the new educators. “We’re talking about a toTIME TO COME | SEE PAGE 7 Belmonte Middle School Principal Myra Monto prepares for a busy year, one that will see her students start the year off in its current quarters and move into the new Saugus Middle-High School next spring. 3 Locations Saugus Groceria, 190 Main Street 781-231-9599 West End, Boston, 75 Blossom Court 617-227-6141 Seaport Boston, 1 Park Lane 857-366-4640 Friday, September 13 at 9 PM BACK TO THE '80'S Saugus High School Principal Michael Hashem will oversee the transition of the current Saugus High School into the new Saugus Middle School-High School next fall.

I am proud and excited to share some of the many great things happening in the district this year. First and foremost, the new Saugus MiddleHigh School will be opening this school year. This has been a colossal effort of the School Committee, Building Committee, Town Manager, Superintendent, Town Meeting, volunteers and residents, and numerous contractors for years, and would not be possible without the hard work and dedication of all involved, as well as the financial support of the Massachusetts School Building Authority. Implementing a new, 21st century education plan and bringing stability to the Saugus Public Schools has been a longterm goal of the School Committee, and I am thrilled to see this vision coming to fruition. As we make preparations for the overall reconfiguration of the district, renovations on the Belmonte Middle School will begin this year to transform the school into a grades 3-5 STEAM academy. I am extremely excited that our third, fourth, and fifth graders will soon learn science and experience working in science labs. I’m ecstatic about the implementation of the Belmonte Middle School pre-academy track. In addition, foreign language was recently reinstated at the middle school, and a return at the elementary level is being explored. The School Committee also voted to have the foreign language graduation requirement reinstated at the high school; this will take effect for incoming students. I would like to commend Superintendent Dr. DeRuosi, Belmonte Principal Mrs. Monto, the administration team, as well as teachers for spending tireless hours creating a turnaround plan for the middle school. We are looking forward to implementing the plan and seeing positive changes. I hope that through these initiatives, together we can help close the student achievement gap by increasing the rigor of our academics and improving the quality of education and life for our students.

Brendon Sullivan, executive director of Curriculum, Instruction & Accountability for the Saugus Public Schools, echoed DeRuosi’s assessment. “Over the next four years, the district is going through a huge change,” Sullivan said. “The way we structure, the way we do business, is going to be very different,” he said. Sullivan, who coordinated the orientation, told the new educators to expect “a very challenging year,” which he said is what he experienced during his first classroom job. He also offered some advice: “We’re here for the kids: The kids aren’t here for us,” he stressed. Never expect an easy path as a teacher, he said. To be a good teacher, one must continue to learn new technology and new instructional ways which improve teaching skills, according to Sullivan. He noted that the school district has hired three new computer teachers to work in the elementary school grades this year. For this week’s story, The Saugus Advocate visited the six schools to find out from principals about major initiatives that are being undertaken. Saugus High School (781-231-5027) Principal Michael Hashem said it is essentially a milestone year in the history of Saugus High School, as seniors (The Class of 2020) will be the last ones to graduate from the building. This year’s juniors (2021) will be the first to graduate from the new school in the spring of 2021. Hashem noted that students in both classes have been preparing for that transition for months. But there are always logistical issues to deal with, he said. “The big thing is the schedule – that’s huge – and also preparing for MAN ON A MISSION: Saugus Public Schools Superintendent Dr. David DeRuosi, Jr. leaves his district office at the Roby School Administration Building on Wednesday, Aug. 28, one week before the start of classes. the move. He said there will be five classes every day, each class 68 minutes long. He said Middle School students would have a similar schedule. Belmonte Middle School (781-231-5052) Principal Myra Monto found herself too busy for an interview on Tuesday or Wednesday as she prepared for the new school year. One major project during the 2019-20 academic year, of course, will be the move next spring from Belmonte to the new school that will accommodate grades 6 through 12.

Vogler F or five years, Town Accountant Donna Matarazzo has been a key part of the financial team that town officials have credited with putting Saugus’s financial house in order. Late last week, Matarazzo gave notice that she will resign effective Sept. 13. She told The Saugus Advocate that she was happy in the Saugus job, but accepted a more challenging job with a bigger budget in a city – as finance director of Lawrence Public Schools. “Saugus has been good to me,” Matarazzo said in an interview in her basement office at Town Hall on Wednesday (Aug. 28). “I just wanted to go on the other side of municipal finance and get to work on the schools. This is an opportunity to do that,” she said. “Now, I get to work on a $200 million school budget that funds 34 schools in a district that has 15,000 students. The overall budget for Saugus is $110 million…” she said. Matarazzo, an East Boston native, said she has thought about seeking finance work in the schools for several years. “I’ve always wanted school finance. My brother is a teacher in Revere. With children, I have an interest in the schools,” she said. Matarazzo, her husband and their two children moved recently from Salem to North Andover, a town that abuts part of Lawrence. “The Town of Saugus has come a long way since I began working here,” Matarazzo said. “It’s been a good time. I’ve learned a lot and I will miss the people here. They have a lot of heart in Saugus. The people who live here really care,” she said. Matarazzo has a Bachelor of Science degree with a specialization in accounting from Salem State College (2004). After graduation she worked for more than a dozen years in corporate accounting before going to work for the Town of Saugus. Town Manager Scott C. Crabtree called Matarazzo an asset to Saugus town government. “I would like to thank Donna Matarazzo for her five years of dedicated service to the Town of Saugus, its residents, and employees,” Crabtree said in an email to The Saugus Advocate yesterday. “The Town of Saugus was incredibly fortunate that Donna contributed her extensive knowledge and experience to the Accounting Department and community as a whole,” the town manager said. “This is a remarkable vertical career opportunity for her with more responsibility and an increase in pay, and I would like to extend my sincerest congratulations to her. We are extremely grateful for her time here in Saugus and we wish her the best in this new opportunity. She will certainly be missed.” TIME TO COME | FROM PAGE 7 school,” Smith said. One exciting initiative for Oaklandvale students this year is joining other schools in the computer age, he said. “This year, we’re adding a digital literacy program and we’re also increasing the Chromebook usage,” Smith said. The school is also taking a look at childhood trauma and recognizing outside factors that contribute to it. Is there something going on in the child’s life that causes chronic absenteeism or chronic tardiness? “It can extend from homelessness, the death of a parent or a loved one or even moving – something that could disrupt the child’s life,” Smith said. “We educate the whole child and make sure the child has wraparound support, from the time he or she is dropped at school until it’s time to be picked up,” he said.

His religion growing up was A celebrated author By The Old Sachem, Bill Stewart T his week we look at an author who has written four books about baseball: “The Wrong Stuff;” “Have Glove, Will Travel: Adventures of a Baseball Vagabond;” “The Little Red (Sox) Book: A Revisionist Red Sox History;” and “Baseball Eccentrics: A Definitive Look at the Most Entertaining, Outrageous and Unforgettable Characters in the Game.” He certainly had exposure to these traits – I’m writing about the “Spaceman,” Bill Lee. William Francis Lee III was born December 28, 1946, in Burbank, California. Bill Lee is best known for his antics on and off the baseball diamond. He was born into a family of baseball players, some professional and some semipro. Lee’s grandfather William Lee was an infielder for the Hollywood Stars of the Pacific Coast League. An aunt, Annabelle Lee, was a pitcher for the All-American Girls Professional Baseball League. The league was later introduced by the movie that featured the women players. Bill ventures that Annabelle taught him to pitch. Bill Lee played for Terra Linda High School in San Rafael, California. After graduation he went to the University of Southern California, majoring in physical education and geography and graduating in 1968. Lee was a pitchBill Stewart The Old Sachem er on the USC club that won the 1968 College World Series, then he was drafted on the twentysecond round of the 1968 draft by the Red Sox. He also served in the US Army Reserve for six years during the Vietnam War, as a Chemical Radiation Biological Officer for the 1173rd , earning Soldier of the Cycle at Fort Polk, Louisiana. One of his duties was to process dead soldiers from New England, call the families and tell them, “You can come get 505 Broadway Everett, MA 02149 Tel: 617-387-1120 www.gkdental.com • Family Dentistry • Crowns • Bridges • Veneers/Lumineers • Dental Implants • All on 4 Dental Implants • Emergency Dentist • Kid Friendly Dentist • Root Canals • Dentures • Invisalign Braces • Snap On Smile • Teeth Whitening We are the smile care experts for your entire family as a Catholic, but later in life he became a Rastafarian. Figures. Along the way he married Canadian-born Diana Donovan. Bill never did develop a good fastball so he diligently worked on off-speed pitches, including a variation of the renowned Eephus pitch, a pitch thrown high in the air to come down in the strike zone of the batter, not an easy thing to do. His variation was the Space Ball, a high, arcing trajectory that was very slow. He missed time with the Red Sox from June 1 to October 1 during the 1970 season when he was called to active duty in the Army Reserve.

The 1973 season was different for the Spaceman, he became a starting pitcher for the Red Sox and compiled a record of 17 and 11 in 38 games with an ERA of 2.95, which got him on the American League All-Star team. He followed that season with two more 17-win seasons for our divine Red Sox. In the 1975 World Series, Bill started two games for the Sox and left both games with the lead, but the Sox lost both games and the series to the Cincinnati Reds. His pitching career is also remembered for a game against the dreaded Yankees on May 20, 1976. The Sox got the final out in the sixth inning when Lou Pinella of the Yankees slid into Carlton Fisk with his spikes high. When Fisk tagged Pinella out at the plate an on-field brawl developed. Because of his part in the brawl, Lee would miss almost two months of the season, suffering a torn ligament in his pitching shoulder. During the 1978 season, Lee and manager Don Zimmer had an ongoing public feud over the way the manager handled the pitching staff. Zimmer was a staunch conservative and Lee was a liberal independent. Bill and a few team members formed their own group called “The Buffalo Heads” as a rebuke to the manager. Zimmer put Lee into the bullpen in retaliation and traded Lee’s associates, Ferguson Jenkins and Bernie Carbo. Lee was upset over the trade of Carbo and threatened to retire. Bill started to refer to the manager as “the gerbil,” which Zimmer saw as the last straw. Lee briefly left the team after pitching a 10-9 win over California, but returned a few days later. During the latter part of the season when the Sox were battling the Yankees for the pennant, Zimmer refused to pitch Lee, and the Sox lost the pennant in a one-game playoff. Zimmer got his wish in dumping the Spaceman at the end of the 1978 season; Lee was traded to the Montreal Expos, for Stan Papi. His farewell shot to Zimmer was “Who wants to be with a team that will go down in history alongside the ’64 Phillies and the ’67 Arabs.” He won 16 games for the Expos in 1979 and was named The Sporting News National League Left Hander of the Year, beating out Steve Carlton of Philadelphia for the prize. The 1980 season was another Lee conundrum. He was on the cover of the magazine High Times for admitting to the use of marijuana. He was called into the office of the Baseball Commissioner, Bowie Kuhn, and told the commissioner he didn’t smoke weed – he only put it on his pancakes. His major league career came to an end in 1982; he was released by the Expos for staging a one-game protest walkout over the release of a comrade, Rodney OLD SACHEM | SEE PAGE 20 Summer is Here! ׉ 7cassandra://lZcLzcoOdI027UX8GkpVBilh0w0A8TqnMatCvk2GKkU+M`̰]hO䰲m2׉E THE SAUGUS ADVOCATE – Friday, August 30, 2019 Page 11 Meet the new Saugus Public Schools teachers BELMONTE MIDDLE SCHOOL: Left to right, front row: Jessica Manuel, Literacy Coach, ELA Curriculum Coordinator (grades 6-12) and assistant mentor leader; Nicole Molina, District Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA); Noelle Putur, Certified Occupational Therapy Assistant (COTA); Nicole Dube, 7th grade sub-separate classroom teacher; Lee Delzingo, 7th grade Inclusion teacher; Kelly Corbett, 6th grade Inclusion teacher; and Nicole Richardson, 8th grade Spanish teacher.

She has been president of the Class of 2020 during all four years. Among numerous scholastic honors, she won the Boston College Book Award last year. Besides being a National Honor Society member and a top-20 student in her class with a 4.1 grade point average, she is also a leader among student athletes – captain in all three sports she competes in: soccer, basketball and track. She’s been captain of the track team since her sophomore year. Kiley, 17, is the daughter of Shane and Lisa Ronan. She has three brothers: Brendan Ronan, Colin Ronan and Nick Antenucci. Brendan is a 2017 Saugus High School graduate. Highlights of this week’s interview follow. Q: So, please tell me what it feels like for you. You are going to be the president of the last student class to graduate from the current Saugus High School building when the Class of 2020 graduates next spring. What’s that going to mean for you? A: Honestly, I’m going to be really excited about that. I just think it’s nice to be able to leave a legacy behind us, especially for all of the classes that follow us. It’s going to be nice to be able to be the last one. I’m proud to be a Sachem. Q: Is there a lot of talk about that among classmates? A: Yes, kind of. We weren’t sure whether we were going to be the first to graduate from the new school or the last from this school, but either way, we’re excited to be something. Q: Please tell me, what are your plans for this year? And what are your expectations for this class? A: So far we’re just looking ahead to Founders Day (Saturday, Sept. 7). That will be a big fund-raiser to get our prom paid off. We want to get everyone involved. Q: Any special projects for this class? A: Right now we just have a bunch of booths set up for Founders Day. But we might do a Comedy Night at Giggles for a class fundraiser. We are also looking at some car washes. We’re just starting small for now. Q: Now, you have been class president all four years. A: Yes. Q: So you are a pretty popular student. A: You could say popular, but I don’t know. Q: But you have a nice blend of talents – scholastic as well as athletic. A: Yes, that was, like, my first thing: academics and athletics. And coming into high school, I want to do when you graduate? A: Yeah, I would say it’s a little too early, because I just started touring colleges and I’m still debating which sport and things like that, but I’m definitely looking into it. Q: Do you have a career objective in mind? A: Yes. I want to major in athletic training and then go to grad school for physical therapy. Q: What would be your topfive schools at this point if you had a choice right now? A: So far, it would be Holy A SCHOLAR IN HER CLASS: Saugus High School Senior Kiley Ronan is a National Honor Society member who ranks among the top-20 students in her class with a 4.1 grade point average. got wrapped up with the class boards, and I’m glad I did. So, I get to lead my class. Q: You must have a pretty busy schedule. A: Oh yeah, definitely. Q: So, at this point in your high school career, what are you most proud of A: As far as most proud of, it would definitely be being class president for all four years. Just because I’m so proud to be a part of Saugus High and graduate from Saugus High, and I love my class so much that it’s nice to be able to present them and lead them. Q: And you are also captain of three sports. Is that right? A: Yes. Q: So, that’s a pretty big deal? A: Yeah. It is. Q: What’s your favorite of the three sports? A: Ooh. I don’t want to upset any coaches, but I’m definitely a big soccer fan. And right now, that’s what I’m doing, so I guess we’ll say soccer. Q: Why is it your favorite sport? Is that the sport you are the best in? A: I just think it’s a great group of girls, and it’s during the fall time when we’re just getting school started. It’s a great way to start the year. Q: Is it going to be a good team this year? A: Yeah. I’m looking forward to it. Q: Now, of the three sports is soccer your best sport? A: I wouldn’t say it’s my best sport – just one that I really enjoy. Q: So, what is your best sport? A: I would probably argue that it’s track. Q: And what are the events you compete in? A: The 200 [yard run], the long jump and the triple jump. Q: At this point, is it too early to decide on what college you want to go to and what you Cross, UConn, UMass Amherst, BC. That’s four. Those would be my top four – my favorites right now. Q: And as far as when you graduate, your chosen career … A: I’m definitely looking into being a physical therapist. Q: So are you deeply rooted in Saugus? Or are you open to living anywhere? A: I’m open to anywhere, but I really do like Saugus. I love the town. Q: How many generations in Saugus does your family go back? A: My mom and dad didn’t grow up in Saugus, but I’ve been here my whole life. Hopefully, future generations of my family will be here. Q: Looking at your class and your peers, what are the big social issues you look toward? A: Our class, like, issues we’re worried about? Q: Things that students are concerned about. With this being an election year for the town and next year being a presidential election year, some of your classmates are going to be voting. A: Yeah, but I don’t know if anyone is too concerned about that yet; I’m not sure if anybody is looking into the future that much. Q: Well, what are kids in you peer group talking about? What are the common concerns of students in your class? A: Honestly, I think we’re all concerned about this new schedule! I know it’s not the biggest issue, but it’s just something – we’re supposed to be seniors, and it’s something new to us. It might be hard to adapt to. Q: So, how does that work? There’s going to be five 68-minute classes, or something like that? A: Yeah, a little more than an hour classes, and then the lunch break is something different. It’s just hard. As seniors, we’re supposed to know where everything is, but we’re learning just like the freshmen are. Q: And last year’s schedule? A: It was completely different. Last year we would have seven classes, like, three days of the week. And then we would have long blocks the other two days, so this one is definitely different. Q: So, what’s the biggest challenge for you? A: Being a class president? Q: Yeah. A: Honestly, I would just say it’s trying to please everybody, because no matter what you do or how you plan the prom or the T-shirt you pick out … not everybody is going to like it. And it’s hard for me, because I want to please everybody. It’s hard to hear the complaints and just, like, knowing that not everybody is happy, but I do my best. Q: Have you started hearing the complaints this year yet? A: There’s always a few here and there, but nothing I can’t handle. Q: So, what do you think is going to be the thing that defines this senior class besides being the last one to graduate J& • Reliable Mowing Service • Spring & Fall Cleanups • Mulch & Edging • Sod or Seed Lawns • Shrub Planting & Trimming • Water & Sewer Repairs Joe Pierotti, Jr. from the current Saugus High School? A: Honestly, we are a tight-knit group of kids, so I think it’s going to be hard for us to graduate and split up, because most of us have been together since elementary school. Saugus is such a close town and most of us didn’t go to private schools. I just think that us being together for so long is, like, what would define us. Q: Do you have any hobbies that fit into your busy schedule? A: I did have hobbies before coming into high school, but I kind of just have to prioritize. Some of them didn’t make it. I do love to dance. Q: What kind of dancing? A: Hip-hop. Q: Are you involved with music? Do you play any instruments? A: Nope. I never got into that. Q: What about volunteerism? A: I do most of my volunteering with NHS [National Honor Society]. Q: What’s the big thing this year? A: We haven’t talked about it, really, but last year we did the Relay For Life, which was a big fundraiser. Q: It’s like an all-nighter, raising money for cancer. A: Oh yeah. It’s very fun, though, and nice knowing that you can raise so much money for a good cause. Q: Anything else that you would like to share about you, this class, your hopes and dreams? A: I’m just excited to see how senior year goes and, hopefully, it’s a smooth year, with everybody getting along and graduating together. And just leaving behind a good name, especially since we’ll be the last ones graduating from this building. S LANDSCAPE & MASONRY CO.

The Sachems are coming off a 12-7 performance last fall, which landed them in the playoffs. Having suffered through a winless campaign back in 2016, Saugus made the tourney two years ago as well, but the team is still looking for that elusive first playoff win. Hickey said that’s on the list of objectives for the future. “We keep making strides. We’ve grown in numbers, grown record-wise and individually,” he pointed out. “We’re also getting better collectively as a group. We want to continue making those strides, along with making the playoffs again and to try and win in the playoffs.” Led by captains Juan Oliveira, Alec Aldred and Vincent Coluccio, the Sachems should form a pretty balanced unit this fall. “I think we’re good in all areas. We’re strong defensively and our strikers are solid,” Hickey said. Made up of mostly underSaugus High School boys’ soccer captains Juan Oliveira, Alec Aldred and Vincent Coluccio.

Saugus Soccer: Girls look to continue winning ways By Greg Phipps W ith two consecutive excellent seasons under their belt, the Saugus High School girls’ soccer team expects to be in the thick of contention again in 2019. The Lady Sachems are coming off a strong 16-win season last year after winning South title the year before. Head coach Chris Coviello said he’s confident his squad can duplicate and perhaps even better its performance this fall. “I think we’ll have another solid team this fall,” he said. “Overall, we’ll be good in all areas.” The lone question mark graduated last spring. “We lost some scoring from last year, but I think we’ll be able to make up for that,” Coviello said. “Our defense, goaltending and midfield play is pretty strong.” This year’s unit is led by captains Jessica Nazzaro, Kiley Ronan and Shaylin Groark.

(Advocate Photo by Greg Phipps) 17 games and taking home the Northeastern Conference might be the offense, since some of the team’s top scorers soned performer in her fourth season playing at the varsity level, and will provide the needed leadership. The Lady Sachems posted a 1-0 first-round win over Bedford in last year’s postseason tournament before falling 4-0 to a powerful Swampscott team in the second round. This season, Saugus opens with two road games: at Somerville next Thursday, Sept. 5 and at Gloucester on Sept. 9. The City of Everett and Everett Bank wish to honor Kathleen Rush for 39 years of service. Kathy has been an intricate part of the community and was recently presented with a citation for her outstanding dedication to the City.

A “Shout-Out” for Saugus High seniors Saugus High School Principal Michael Hashem says more than a hundred “nonfreshman students” should take a bow for their generosity during Wednesday’s (Sept. 28) freshman orientation. “I really appreciate all of the seniors, juniors and sophomores who showed up to help out,” Hashem told The Saugus Advocate. “It was great to see all of them there supporting the freshmen. It showed great school spirit,” he said. “About 20 percent of all of the non-freshmen were here today, helping out on tours through the school and being part of the orientation on one of their last days of summer. I thought that was very classy,” the principal said. I got a chance to observe it while waiting to interview the Saugus Senior Class President, Kiley Ronan. And yes indeed, it was classy. And from what I understand, it’s a tradition that repeats itself every year. Want to “Shout-Out” a fellow Saugonian?

Counting candidates or possible candidates Not a lot of activity over the past couple of weeks as far as potential candidates coming out of the woodwork to stir up the political pot – except for some incumbents who would like to get reelected to another two-year term, whether it be on the School Committee or the Board of Selectmen. Incumbent School Committee Chair Jeannie Meredith and Committee Member Linda Gaieski have pulled papers. That brings to 10 the number of potential candidates who are at least interested in the position. For the Board of Selectmen, Selectmen Scott Brazis and Jeff Cicolini, who is the board’s vice chair, have also pulled papers. That brings to 12 the number of potential candidates – which includes four members of the current board. Only Selectman Mark Mitchell has not yet pulled nomination papers. Mitchell, the former comptroller for the Boston Center for Adult Education, was indicted for allegedly embezzling around a million of the nonprofit’s money. On the Housing Authority front, Maureen Whitcomb has pulled papers for a seat on the Housing Authority. She is serving out an unexpired term. There are five potential candidates for the Housing Authority so far.

But we’re going to be focused more on Math and Science this year.” Waybright Elementary School (781-231-5087) Patricia Romano, a 24-year Saugus educator who begins her first full year as principal of the Waybright Elementary School, said she is excited about several initiatives she believes will help improve the culture and the learning experience at the school. “We’re going to establish a Sachem Buddies Program where kids with disabilities are interacting with kids who are without disabilities,” Romano said. “We’re hoping this will foster relationships and friendships. Sachem Buddies Programs are currently active at the High School and the Veterans School.” The school staff is expanding its program which recognizes students who exemplify excellence as students and character. “We’re hoping that positive qualities become contagious and contribute to an even more positive culture at the school,” she said. Every classroom will be equipped with Chromebooks for all students this year. Among the new educators added to the Waybright staff this year is a digital literacy teacher who will assist the 195 students in Kindergarten through Grade 5. “My goal this year is to work with staff and see kids grow to their capacity.

(Editor’s Note: The following info was issued this week by the National Park Service.) L et’s play together! Salem Maritime and Saugus Iron Works National Historic Sites are continuing their popular preschool programming into late summer and early autumn. In addition, as part of Salem’s Haunted Happenings, there will be two live owl shows from Eyes on Owls for older children (ages 6 and up) and their families on Saturday, October 5 at 10 a.m. and 11:30 a.m. in St. Joseph Hall, 160 Derby Street. At Salem Maritime, ‘Preschoolers in the Park’ take place on most Mondays and Tuesdays from 10 to 11 a.m. through October 28. At Saugus Iron Works, ‘Preschoolers in the Park’ takes place on most Thursdays and Fridays from 10 to 11 a.m. through Sept.13. Special guests in September and October include live owls from Eyes on Owls and Borah Brewington Snaggletooth XIII from Salem’s Black Hat Society. ‘Preschoolers in the Park’ give children and their adult caregivers the opportunity to learn together about National Parks through a fun, age appropriate, and handson approach.

Saugus High Class of ’69 reunion The Saugus High School Class of 1969 is planning for its 50th class reunion. The reunion will be held on Sept. 20 at 6:30 p.m. at Kowloon.

For more details, check with Dennis Gould: (617) 267-4847. Calling civic-minded Saugus students Hey, Saugus High School students? Want to do something fun, educational and worthwhile on Tuesday, Nov. 5, when Saugus holds its town elections? Town Clerk Ellen Schena has an offer you might consider. There’s no school on Election Day anyway. “All students – 16, 17 and 18 – are welcome to work as election workers at the minimum pay rate or for community service,” Ellen told me this week. “I usually get five or six for every election. But I’d like to get more. It’s something good to have on your resume – that you worked on the election,” she said. For more details, stop by the Town Clerk’s Office on the first floor of Town Hall and tell the town clerk or one of her assistants that you want to be part of the next town election. Is charter reform needed? A common beef of voters that I have been hearing more of lately is the need for staggered elections. Instead of the five-member Board of Selectmen and the five-member School Committee running in tandem, I hear the town’s system of local government would benefit overall if there were town elections every year with members’ terms not being up in the same year. A fundraiser for Ruth’s Way for Women The Giggles Comedy Club in Prince Pizzeria (517 Broadway South in Saugus) will be hosting a fundraiser for Ruth’s Way for Women on Sept. 13, from 5 to 8 p.m. Tickets are $35 apiece and include pizza and soda. Ruth’s Way is a faith-based recovery community focused on assisting women in recovery, women veterans and homeless women. For more information, please call Andrea at 617-816-9139. Saugus over coffee, anyone? Back during several stints covering local politics in Lawrence, I would organize neighborhood groups into several coffee klatches, where the residents would talk about major issues in their respective parts of the city. These were very popular sessions, as they would empower city voters to discuss issues on their mind and their wish lists of projects they liked to see discussed on the campaign trail. These were so successful that the citizens essentially set voter agendas for City Council, School Committee and sometimes mayoral races. Do you as a Saugus resident have issues that you would like to see public officials tackle in your neighborhood in town? Would you feel comfortable sitting down with a reporter over coffee focusing on what you would like to see done town-wide or in a specific neighborhood? Get some of your friends together, and let’s have some coffee as you articulate what you think should be an issue tackled by town or school officials.

OLD SACHEM | from page 10 Scott. When a sportswriter asked if he minded being blackballed, Lee replied, “I’ll go down in history with a lot of people who’ve been blackballed.” Responding to an additional question, his reply was “Oh, I’ll never be out of baseball for good, it’s my life.” Bill Lee hadn’t given up baseball, and baseball hadn’t given up on him. He played semipro, a single season with the Senior League in Florida with a group of former major leaguers, in Venezuela, and up in Canada with Moncton, New Brunswick, as first-baseman and pitcher for the Moncton Mets. He announced plans with his second wife, Pamela, to move to Burlington, Vermont, and in 1987 announced a plan to run for President of the United States for the Rhinoceros Party. As you know he didn’t win. His nickname “Spaceman” was given to him by Red Sox infielder John Kennedy. Lee had much to say about the world to journalists, defending Maoist China, population control, Greenpeace and school bussing in Boston. In the 1975 World Series, Bill got upset over an umpire’s call and threatened to bite off the umpire’s ear. He then asked the American public to write letters to the Commissioner demanding that the game be replayed, which could have won the Sox the World Series. For Rent AVAILABLE NOW! 1 Bedroom Apt.

June 2008 saw him pitching for the Alaska Goldpanners during the annual Midnight Sun baseball game at night during the Summer Solstice. In September 2010 Lee pitched 5 2/3 innings for the Brockton Rox, as a member of the Canadian-American Association of Professional Baseball, and was the winning pitcher. On October 8, 2011, he participated in the “100 Innings of Baseball Game” run by the Boston Amateur Baseball Network to raise money for ALS. In August he pitched a nine-inning complete game for the San Rafael Pacifics, beating the Na Koa Ikaika Maui squad by the score of 9-4. His bat and uniform was donated to the Baseball Hall of Fame because he now had the record of the oldest pitcher to make a starting appearance and pitch a complete game, and to earn a win in a professional baseball game. He appears a lot on radio talk shows and is also a regular coach at the Annual Red Sox Fantasy Camp run by the Red Sox organization in Florida at the Spring Training Facility. Lee also released his own wine label, “Spaceman Red,” a California syrah, cabernet and petite syrah blend that is distributed throughout New England. A final quote from the Spaceman. “You have two hemispheres in your brain – a left and a right side. The left side controls the right side of your body and the right side controls the left half.
