(Advocate photo by Tara Vocino) School principals support supt.; decry false information over High School fracas Community meeting planned for Sept. 24 at 5:30 p.m. at RHS in Learning Commons By Barbara Taormina T he School Committee began their meeting this week with school principals using the public speaking segment to express their support for the administration, and their frustration with how Revere High School has been portrayed in the media as a result of the fi ghts that took place over the last two weeks. Nancy Martell, principal at the James J. Hill Elementary School, said her son, a junior at Revere High, feels safe in all parts of the school. Martell said the recent fi ghts involved a small number of students in need of additional services and have nothing to do with the majority of the high school community. She criticized those who have been giving inaccurate information to the media and stressed that the recent fi ghts at the high school do not defi ne Revere as a community. Joanne Willett, principal of the Susan B. Anthony Middle School, said she came to the meeting to express her unwavering support for Schools Supt. Dianne Kelly, who she said has brought visionary leadership to the district. Willett praised Kelly for her focus on equity, academic rigor and student well-being. She described media accounts of the recent incidents as very untrue and very unfortunate. Revere High Principal Christopher Bowen said he was sickened by accounts that described Revere students, particularly students of color and immigrant students, as criminals and animals two weeks after the large fi ght at the high school. He also said he was troubled by accounts that educators do not receive the needed support from school and city leaders. Bowen said he has received everything he’s asked the administration to provide to bolster social and emotional support services for struggling students. School Committee Vice Chair Jacqueline Monterroso echoed Bowen’s comments and said false headlines and misinformation have hurt the student body. Monterroso said adults should be aware of how their words and actions are affecting students.

Whether you’re racing for a personal best or simply enjoying a leisurely jog with friends and family, the Revere Beach Pumpkin Dash promises a memorable experience filled with laughter, camaraSUPPORT | FROM Page 1 Negative characterizations and racial slurs are causing kids to lose trust in teachers and other adults with whom they interact. “Words have consequences,†she said. “Students deserve better from the greater community.†Kelly thanked the principals for their support and went on to update the committee on the follow-up measures taking place at Revere High. “We are excited to have a new female Latina school resource offi cer,†said Kelly. “And the police department’s behavioral health unit will be housed at the high school for the foreseeable future.†The district is also partnering with Roca, a Chelsea-based intervention program for highrisk youth. A weekly newsletter and monthly meetings are also planned to increase parent involvement at the high school. A community meeting is planned for September 24 at 5:30 p.m. in the Learning Commons. Meanwhile, the School Committee’s Safety & Security Subcommittee is continuing to explore the possibility and the derie and the joy of embracing the fall festivities. Your registration includes: • Commemorative race medal • Offi cial event t-shirt (must be registered by Friday, October 4, to guarantee a shirt) • Post-race beer (for all runners 21+) at Fine Line • Flat & fast beachside 5K course Register at https://raceroster. com/events/2024/84192/ revere-beach-partnershippumpkin-dash need of bringing in an outside security company to support the school resource officers. Anthony Caggiano, Chair of the subcommittee, proposed having at least a detail police offi cer at the school during dismissal, or possibly retired offi - cers who are still interested in working. “Having an extra body up here every day will be helpful,†he said. “I don’t want to see another staff member get hurt.†Caggiano said he feels that the school district’s move to exclude 18 individuals involved in the fi ght in school and the subsequent fi ght on Beach Street may quell the problem. Police Chief David Callahan said the police are still combing through videos of the fi ghts to identify participants. “Numerous people will be taken to court on various charges,†Callahan said. “We have zero tolerance for this. A small percentage of the students have disrupted the school and community.†Callahan also said police are trying to “dig down and get to the source of the issue.†The hope is they can prevent any future incidents by solving whatever confl ict caused the fi rst fi ght. ׉ Ú7cassandra://qzD_0dnt0hSk7UYudSB39o1Ag_QDRlhS-qZMdknA_9cÍ0^Í`Ì°Í×fì‰ðWA ý{šÎ׉EÚÍTHE REVERE ADVOCATE – FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 20, 2024 Page 3 ~ GUEST COMMENTARY ~ Trump is Starting to Look Like a Sitting Duck By Sal Giarratani Y ou know, this week I was going to talk about my recent meet-up with childhood actor Jerry Mathers who spent six seasons and 200 episodes starring in “Leave it to Beaver†up at Phil Castinetti’s Sportsworld in Saugus on Sunday, August 25, but the recent news about yet another failed attempt on former President Donald Trump’s life down in Florida at his West Palm Springs golf course trumps the Beaver. Next week, I will talk about meeting Jerry Mathers and remembering a sitcom that I loved so much. My brother and I watched that sitcom series’ 200 episodes religiously every week. However, at the moment I am very concerned about what is happening in America these days. There seems to be so much violence being tolerated. I thought that the ‘60s were a violent period in America but what we are witnessing today grows worse. Over a month ago, Trump almost got killed at an outdoor rally in Butler, PA but for the grace of God and Trump moving to his right at the last second, he missed getting his head blown off. Now this past weekend down in Florida, another wouldbe sniper almost took Trump out again. This time it was at a golf course in West Palm Beach where Trump was on the course with friends enjoying a great game of golf. This time, at the last possible moment. a Secret Service agent noticed the sniper’s gun in the brushes. Once spotted, he ran but thanks to civilians nearby, the culprit was caught. These two would-be assassins failed but how many more attempts on Trump’s life might surely come? Not the finest hour for the Secret Service, is it? The county sheriff reported that since Trump is not the sitting president, he doesn’t get full secret service protection. Why? Especially in this violent moment in US history! Any wonder is it really a coincidence that two attempts on Trump’s life have taken place so quickly. There are many out there who are getting revved up over the hateful rhetoric of the Democrats: They call him Hitler. They call him a dictator. They call him an enemy of democracy. No wonder unhinged crackpots out there arrive on the scene to take Trump out. Lately, some out there think it might be a deep state conspiracy. Is there a mole in the Secret Service or within the Department of Homeland Security? Is there a mole within the Trump Campaign Organization itself? Lately, it seems Trump has become a target. Can he really feel safe anywhere? Shouldn’t he? Remember when Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz stated he had served in combat? Seems right now, Trump has been in combat and under fi re more than Walz ever claimed to be, hasn’t he? Trump is no enemy of the state. He is a former president and now wants to get another four years in the White House. President Biden needs to ensure that the former president gets full secret service protection. Democrats need to lower the temperature in its political discourse, too. We have two candidates running for president. They are opponents not enemies. It is time for all of us to stand up for America, its values and its principals. RevereTV Spotlight E l Concilio Latino de Massachusetts invited all community members to join in celebrating 204 years of the Central American fl ag and 215 years of the Mexican flag outside City Hall on Monday afternoon.

I still remember when my dad bought our fi rst TV set. It had a round screen, weighed about 50 pounds and we had a total of three channels to watch. On Saturday mornings, it was Rex Trailer, a bunch of cartoons, Fury, Circus Boy and Roy Rogers. Weeknights, the whole family would turn on the TV to watch all those black and white sitcoms or dramas. One of my favorites was “Leave it to Beaver’ starring Jerry Mathers as the Beaver. By the way, I once wrote to Hollywood trying to get his autograph. It came in the mail a few weeks later. Back at the beginning of August, I read a piece in the Advocate that advertised that Jerry Mathers would be showing up at Phil Castinetti’s Sportsworld store in Saugus The line outside was in a great mood as everyone waited to get inside to talk with “The Beaver†star Jerry Mathers. (Courtesy photos) up on Route 1. I marked my calendar, When the day Sunday, August 25, I drove up to the place. A large line of folks were lined up outside waiting to get inside to see the Beaver. Most of the folks were around my age since the TV series ran from 1957 to 1963. My brother identifi ed as the Beaver and I did likewise with older brother Wally. In real life though, I was the exact same age as Mathers. I even got a great photo taken of me with Jerry Mathers Jerry Mathers, Tv’s The Beaver, with fan, Sal Giarratani at Sportsworld.

Amazingly there were lots of old dudes like me in line because “Leave it to Beaver†was a part of so many kids’ lives back then. Now all these ‘50s and ‘60s kids are a bunch of ever-growing older guys and gals like me. Happy to go back in time to when l life felt so much simpler then. We don’t often get a chance to get inside a time machine and go back but that was how I felt up at Phil’s place on August 25. By the way, I loved Sportsworld, too. I wish my mother never gave away the baseball card collection I had to a little kid next door. Who knows how much some of those cards would be worth today. By the way, Phil is a 1974 graduate of Revere High School which meant he got to see this iconic TV series in repeats, I got to watch them when the show was still running new episodes. Well, I got to take meeting Jerry Mathers in person off my bucket list. However, my bucket still feels pretty heavy and the list still long. Subscribe to the www.advocatenews.net Advocate Online!

During this month, prevention organizations, survivors, mental health advocates, and community members unite to promote suicide prevention and awareness. One important aspect of suicide prevention is recognizing the connection between substance use and suicide. Drug addiction prevention campaigns are always working hand-in-hand with suicide prevention campaigns in local communities. Drug and alcohol addiction, such as alcohol and opioid use disorders, for example, signifi cantly increases the risk of suicidal ideation, attempts and death. These are generally the two most implicated substances in suicide risk. The risk of suicidal thoughts and behavior is elevated with acute alcohol intoxication and chronic alcohol use or dependence. The same applies to opioid use, as it can increase the risk of suicide and unintentional overdose caused by opioids alone or polysubstance use. According to the American Foundation for Suicide Prevenknowing simple things, such as dialing 988 for the Suicide and Crisis Lifeline, a 24-7 free and confi dential support for people in distress. The Massachusetts Association for Mental Health off ers many resources locally, such as resources for students, training and mental health education. We must all work to change Marcel Gemme is the founder of SUPE: Substance Use Prevention Education. (Courtesy photo) tion, suicide is the 16th leading cause of death in Massachusetts and the second leading cause of death among those aged 10 to 34 living in the state. It’s estimated that 59% of communities in Massachusetts did not have enough mental health providers to serve residents in 2023. In 2021, four times as many people died by suicide than in alcohol-related motor vehicle accidents. Fortunately, prevention campaigns work and increase awareness surrounding substance use and suicide. Anyone can take action today by the conversation from suicide to suicide prevention. There are actions that anyone can take to help and give hope to those who are struggling. Consider some of the following pointer. Ask, do not beat around the bush, but ask that person how they are doing and if they are thinking about suicide. Acknowledging and talking about suicide reduces suicidal ideation. Be there for that person, and they will feel less depressed, less suicidal and less overwhelmed. Keep them safe and help them stay connected. When lethal means are made less available or less deadly, the frequency and risks of suicide decline. Moreover, the hopelessness subsides when you help that person create a support network of resources and individuals. Most importantly, maintain contact, follow up and see them in person as frequently as possible. This is a critical part of suicide prevention, along with always learning more about prevention and awareness. However, this process is not bulletproof, and we must recognize there are countless instances of individuals taking their lives and giving no indication or red fl ag they were suicidal. But if we can keep changing the conversation, breaking down the walls of stigma and making the resources accessible, more people may ask for help before it is too late. —Marcel Gemme is the founder of SUPE and has been helping people struggling with substance use for over 20 years. His work focuses on a threefold approach: education, prevention and rehabilitation.

That has caused losses to rise, with the median report increasing from $1,000 in 2021 to almost $6,000 this year. To help consumers and businesses understand investment scams, BBB’s International Investigations Initiative combed through thousands of reports to BBB Scam Tracker, talked with experts and investigated the newest trends to compile an investment scans study. The study combines consumer stories and examines how scammers convince their targets to hand over thousands of dollars. It also shows how a rise in organized crime based in southeast Asia has helped perpetuate this global scam. This in-depth study is intended to help consumers, businesses, news media, researchers and regulatory agencies understand: • How investment scams work and how to avoid them • What type of enforcement is helping curb the fraud • Red flags for consumers and businesses An increasingly common tactic is revealed by an experience of a man from California, who told BBB he was traveling through France when he matched on a dating app with a woman calling herself “Mei.†The two talked for months and even made video calls as they got to know one another. Eventually, she brought up cryptocurrency investing as a hobby of hers and convinced Darryl to join her. The two continued to chat on the phone for months, and he invested nearly $1,000. One day, when Darryl went to check the application he used for investing, it appeared to be down. When he contacted Mei, she rebuffed him and disappeared. In some cases, losses grow into devastating amounts. One woman in Connecticut reported to BBB about a cryptocurrency scam she encountered on social media. Unbeknownst to her, a friend’s social media account was hacked. The scammer, posing as the friend, said they ran an automated training bot — a program used to trade cryptocurrency automatically according to a user’s guidelines — with guaranteed returns. The account appeared to grow and grow, and eventually Jeanne wanted to withdraw some of it. The scammer, still posing as the friend, said they wanted a 20% commission, which Jeanne paid. Afterward, they disappeared, and Jeanne lost $84,000 in the process. Red fl ags: How to avoid cryptocurrency investment scams: • Deals involving littleknown cryptocurrencies • Requests to share your cryptocurrency wallet with someone you don’t trust completely • Strategies off ering guaranteed returns • An investment that takes little eff ort or time to pull off • Someone off ers their secret strategy or says not to research their claims • Too - good-to-be-true claims • A stranger suddenly wants to befriend you Where to report investment scams: • https://www.bbb.org/ or https://www.bbb.org/scamtracker • Federal Trade Commission at ReportFraud.ftc.gov or call 877-FTC-Help • Federal Bureau of Investigation at fbi.gov or call 202-324-3000 for general reports ׉ Ú7cassandra://wkFcgI-BS5rHhuXgzwHRyQAkADp7KvP7G86dtjSit8QÍ,Í`Ì°Í×fì‰ðWA ý{šÒ׉EÚÎTHE REVERE ADVOCATE – FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 20, 2024 Page 7 The HYM Investment Group and National Real Estate Advisors Announce First Retail Lease at Amaya Twisted Fate Brewery to Open in Beachmont Square Offering a Taproom & Outdoor Patio R EVERE — The HYM Investment Group (“HYMâ€) and National Real Estate Advisors, LLC (“Nationalâ€), recently announced that Twisted Fate Brewing will open a location at Amaya, the fi rst residential building to deliver at Suff olk Downs. Twisted Fate, a family-owned, majority femaleowned nanobrewery is the fi rst retail lease signed at Amaya, which welcomed its fi rst residents in June. Twisted Fate anticipates opening the doors to its Suff olk Downs location in the Spring of 2025. Twisted Fate Brewing is set to expand its presence with a new location at 64-72 Salt Street, occupying prime groundfl oor retail space in the Amaya building. This new spot will feature a diverse selection of craft beers, ranging from the refreshing tastes of their lagering programs to the hoppy depths of their New England IPAS, to the rich warmth of their year-round stouts, and more.

Twisted Fate will also off er food options at their new location to keep the good times rolling. The new location will boast a seasonal outdoor patio, adding nearly 400 square feet of space for guests to enjoy. Situated in the vibrant Beachmont Square, with direct access to the MBTA Blue Line and less than a halfmile from the oldest public beach in the U.S, the Revere location is perfectly positioned to become a new local favorite. This marks Twisted Fate’s second establishment following their successful launch in Danvers, MA in April 2022. Amaya is a 475-unit residential building that includes over 24,000 square feet of dynamic ground-level retail offerings in the new Beachmont Square neighborhood.
