Cardello, of 27 Ferry St., Everett, am announcing my candidacy for election to the position of School Committee at Large. What is the School Committee’s responsibility? To explain briefly, according to the Department of Education, the answer is “The School Committee has oversight and responsibility for the school department, sets the direction in which the system must go and establishes criteria to determine if its goals and polices are being met.” I started my venture into city politics in 1994 when I was elected to the School Committee. After serving six years on the School Committee, I ventured into a run for the Common Council where I served for six years. My next venture was to the Board of Alderman where I served for four years. Currently I am serving on the School Committee having been humbly elected by the City Council and the School Committee to fill an open position of the School Committee at Large due to the untimely passing of the then member Richard Baniewicz. It was bittersweet for me. Richard and his wife Linda had been friends of mine for over fifty years; it was very emotional to think I would be now serving in his place. I have worked diligently with my colleagues, administrators, teachers, paraprofessionals, students, secretaries, cafeteria employees, custodians and city government, etc. to live up to the responsibilities of a School Committee member. I enjoy being involved in my community and strive to be a good example. I enjoy living my life to help people in any way I can. That is who I am! The reasons I want to be a voice Millie Cardello School Committee Member-at-Large for the people of Everett are: I was born here (at the Whidden Hospital); go to church here; went to school here, I graduated Everett High. Class of “68”. After my tour of duty in the United States Air Force I returned to Everett and resumed my life here. I raised my family here, I pay taxes here, I shop here, and I do all the things you do so I get it! My roots go very deep in Everett. My grandparents, my parents, aunts, uncles, cousins lived here, went to school here, owned property here, worked here and a lot of them still do. This is my home; this is your home. Everett is our home town and I am proud to be here. I want to continue to serve you as your representative on the School Committee at Large. I want to be here to take your phone calls and emails, to listen to your concerns, problems and suggestions.

Although the City Council voted 5-3 in favor of the appropriation, City Clerk Sergio Cornelio said six votes were needed for it to pass. Councillor-at-Large Peter Napolitano said there was no reason to belabor the matter. “To me, this is a little bit ludicrous,” he said. “To save a few bucks, we could hold out to November and maybe have the lights up by February – does that make sense to anybody?” Napolitano also said $160,000 is a modest request. “This is what we do, we appropriate money,” he said. The City Council ultimately voted 9-1 to approve the appropriation. Possible Pope John sale In other news, the councillors agreed to support Mayor Carlo DeMaria’s proposal to purchase the property formerly occupied by Pope John XXIII High School and convert the building into affordable senior housing. According to the Assessor’s Office, the property is currently valued at $20.4 million. “As you know, a lot of our seniors are having a tough time paying rent in the city,” said DeMaria. Therefore, he said, Everett residents would be given priority to occupy the “300400” units. Matewsky said Glendale Towers was the last cityowned housing development to open. “The City of Everett needs to have a footprint on property,” he said. “I’d like to see the City purchase that property.” In terms of funding, DeMaria said he is planning to use state dollars as opposed to federal money. “I’d like to have this RFP [Request for Proposals] out within the next six months,” he said. Ward 5 Councillor Rosa DiFlorio said the City Council should exercise prudence in working with the state to negotiate funding and construction. “I want to be very careful on how this is done,” she said. “I want to make sure we have full control.” 221 Newbury Street, Danvers For Tickets call (978) 774-7270 or www.breakawaydanvers.com ׉ 7cassandra://_gfKMu-ijoOV3yqWi1TINvQ8cEAKu_TaK3EdqOCOn0I.`̰]_C#cC׉ETHE EVERETT ADVOCATE–Friday, October 18, 2019 Page 5 Help Wanted: City in need of poll workers T he City of Everett is currently accepting applications for poll workers for the November 5 General ElecIt’s all about E-D-U-C-A-T-I-O-N! “Our Kids Come First” Building Hope...for the Future ~ Elect ~ CYNTHIA SARNIE School Committee at Large Vote Nov. 5 * Last Name on Ballot (Paid Political Ad) tion.

Bob leaves Encore with a hand-selected team prepared to take on the challenges ahead. I salute him for his commitment to the project and, most importantly, his dedication to his team.” DeSalvio will be replaced by Encore’s Food and Beverage Manager, Brian Gullbrants.

I am running for re-election because I continue to care deeply about the City of Everett and its residents. I care about the City of Everett because my friends, family and co-workers live and work in Everett, and all of us rely on a well-run city. That’s why I initially ran for Common Council in 2005, and why the voters of Ward 5 elected me then and have since re-elected me to represent them. I know the City of Everett because I am from here. My parents came to this country from Italy when I was 7 years old and faced discrimination and economic hardship, so I am well aware of the challenges faced by our newer immigrant population. My parents held to their principals that hard work, dedication, and investment in the future would ultimately allow them and their extended family to achieve success and live the American dream. I have taught my children that those principals hold true. I attended the Everett public schools, graduated from Everett High School in 1975 and eventually started my family’s successful tile business in Everett in 1981. My husband Michael and I have been married for over 40 years, and during that time, we have worked in Everett, have gone to church in Everett, and have raised our five sons in this city, all of whom attended Everett High School and went on to pursue higher education at colleges in Massachusetts. I also have several grandchildren and, therefore, I’m worried about how changes in the City of Everett may impact the lives of our new generation. A very important reason that I was initially elected and then re-elected was that my constituents expected me to represent those who cannot vote – the children of the City of Everett. A strong commitment to public education is critical because our children and their futures are impacted by the quality of the education we give them in our schools. The City of Everett is very fortunate to have a school system that is rated as one of the best in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. However, funding from tax revenues alone does not support our school system. Federal and state grant monies are required continuously to maintain our high standard of education and to DOES YOUR BIG BANK MAKE YOU FEEL SMALL? SWITCH TO EBSB, IT’S A NO BRAINER!

While there’s still work to be done in amending the State’s school funding formula, I’m proud of the work the City of Everett has done in the past few years to fund our schools in difficult times. If I am re-elected, my emphasis will be to advocate for similar funding for our senior citizens, a group that unfortunately hasn’t been the focus of as much discussion lately. We need to ensure that our senior centers and buildings are well-maintained and our City’s grant-writer captures every opportunity available – not only for education – but for city-wide for infrastructure development, parks, recreation, senior services, veteran services and green space.

My constituents rely on me to make certain that the City of Everett is run properly and that services such as DPW, police and fire, trash pickup, street cleaning and many other City services are to the satisfaction of my constituents. I keep a close eye on all of the City’s services and am always available if there is an issue with any of them. As your Ward 5 City Councilor, I will advocate to provide more jobs, housing, medical services and counseling to our Veterans, hire more diverse and qualified police officers and firemen, reduce businesses taxes to create additional Page 11 tax revenue streams and jobs, apply good business practices in adopting future capital improvements. I have been an elected official for the City of Everett and the voice of Ward 5 on the City Council for over 12 years, serving as the Chair of the Business and Community Development Committee for over 8 years. I also serve on the Legislative Affairs Committee (formerly known as Rules and Ordinances) & the Elections Committee. As a former Co-Chair of the City Council’s Finance Committee, I always read every line of the Mayor’s City budget and will continue reviewing every penny spent by this City to benefit the taxpayers of this City. I have also served as the Common Council President. In each capacity, I have embraced the philosophy that all tax revenues must be wisely spent and that there must be accountability. My qualifications and experience as your Ward 5 City Councilor, coupled with my legislative knowledge, are just a few of the many reasons why I should be re-elected.

Katie O'Donnell scored twice and Juliana Raffa added two goals and an assist, as the Lady Patriots improved to 9-21. On the other side, Everett has made the win column recently and actually carried the play for portions of Monday's game, especially in the second half after it had fallen behind 3-0. O'Donnell's goal off an assist from Raffa at 19:16 of the first period gave the Lady Patriots a 1-0 edge. Raffa followed that up with her first score when she received a nice cross pass from Eve Lescovitz to make it 2-0 about five minutes later. That's how it stayed until halftime. Revere would increase the advantage to 3-0 on Raffa's second tally (Crystal Valente assisting on the play) about five minutes into the second session. But the visiting Tide refused to lay down, as they Everett's Ashley Fitzgerald charges past a Revere defender on Monday. began to pressure the Revere end and produce several good scoring chances. Everett finally broke through when DJ Schovance connected on a wrist shot from about 10 feet away to close the deficit to 3-1. Revere proceeded to call a time out. Almost immediately the Lady Patriots went on the offensive and it paid off when O'Donnell wrapped one home from close in to regain the three-goal lead with just under eight minutes left.

In addition, DeMaria said funding for other post-employment benefits will increase once the retirement system is fully funded. However, this plan flies in the face of one of the recommendations made recently by the School Finance Task Force. It stated that “the distribution of the annual casino revenue for the city should be dedicated to ongoing critical needs of the city in its provision of operational and capital services. Going forward, these funds should not be applied to reducing property owners’ tax bills.” Yet, the DeMaria Administration is anticipating a “significant increase” in state education funding under Chapter 70. The Student Opportunity Act, which was recently passed by the State Senate, will infuse $1.5 billion into the Chapter 70 system. Within that figure, Everett is expected to receive at least $19 million incrementally over the next seven fiscal years.

That proved to be the case, at least through one half, last Friday night in Malden. The winless Golden Tornadoes reached halftime in a 6-6 deadlock with the highly favored Everett Crimson Tide. But the visiting Tide awoke and reeled off 30 unanswered points in the second half to walk away with a 36-6 win. The victory upped Everett’s mark to 5-1, having clinched a spot in the postseason tourney.

Everett has now outscored opponents, 94-6, since the second half of the Sept. 27 win over Brockton. In last Friday’s win, quarterback Duke Doherty ran 15 yards for a TD when he scrambled away from pressure, and Eli Auguste had a big game with a 67-yard run, a TD run and a returned interception for a score.

The recent history between the two teams; however, isn’t all that one-sided. Malden scored a big upset win over the Tide back in 2015 As of this week, the Boston Globe still had the Tide ranked fifth overall in Eastern Mass. Everett head coach Theluxon Pierre and company now move on to face Somerville this Friday (scheduled 5 p.m. kickoff) at Veterans Memorial Stadium. Pierre has remarked that his team just wants “to keep improving and take it one game at a time” as the playoffs draw near. Entering last week’s game at Malden, Doherty had thrown for 800 yards so far this fall and almost 2,500 for his career. The kicking game also looks pretty efficient as placekicker Abraham Betancourth connected on all six of his PAT kicks in the 42-0 victory over Medford back on Oct. 4.

To honor Ersilia, Metro hosted Still She Rises on Thursday, October 3, 2019, at the Robert Cashman, Everett Mayor Carlo DeMaria and First Lady Stacy DeMaria Holiday Inn at 30 Washington St. in Somerville. Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley delivered the keynote address to over 250 guests in attendance. This event was made possible by the generosity of our sponsors, the businesses and people that donated items for our silent auction and the multitude of guests that joined us that evening. Speaking of the need to put forth bold legislation to end the epidemic of domestic violence and provide trauma-informed care to victims, keynote speaker Congresswoman Pressley noted that spreading awareness is “our charge and our sacred task, to take these stories out of the shadows, to put them on full display, because sunlight is the best disinfectant. That is why it is so important that we are here tonight, raising funds for organizations that are doing the work in our communities to not only support people who are suffering at the hands of a loved one, but to put an end to the suffering altogether.” “One in three women and one in four men are victims of domestic violence in the United States,” stated Senior Vice President and General Counsel Jacqui Krum of Encore Boston Harbor, the Host Sponsor of the evening. She noted that statistically, of the 5,000 people employed by Encore, over 1,500 have or will experience domestic violence, remarking that society must end the stigma surrounding the epidemic so that people feel supported to come forward and seek help. “We are so proud of the success of Still She Rises,” said Senior Vice President of Outreach, Advocacy and Chief Development Officer Charlene Bauer of Metro Credit Union. “Celia’s presence will forever be missed at Metro and in her community. We’re so thankful to all of our sponsors and guests who came together in raising over $55,000 in her memory to end the epidemic of domestic violence.” ׉ 7cassandra://vOCls5a_28pDr62EmBdT4iSggHeOmbA6FNcUJz0Ltxo#`̰]_C#cC׉ETHE EVERETT ADVOCATE–Friday, October 18, 2019 Page 23 MVRCS | FROM PAGE 6 Abigail Adams Scholarship; it was announced recently by the Massachusetts Department of Elementary and Secondary Education. The 43 students represents over half of MVRCS’ total graduating class, making the school one of a select few throughout the Commonwealth in which a majority of its graduating seniors received the scholarship award. The scholarship entitles the graduate to four years of tuition assistance at any Massachusetts state college or university. “I am proud to congratulate our 43 seniors for receiving the Adams Scholarship,” Mystic Valley Director/Superintendent Alex Dan said. “Many of these young men and women have been a part of our school community since kindergarten and credit for this accomplishment goes to not only the students themselves but our faculty, staff and administration that has not only educated but nurtured these students during their formative years.” Because only 25 percent of any given district’s students are eligible for the John and Abigail Adams Scholarship (each city is capped at 25 percent regardless of where those students attend school), the fact that 52 percent of MVRCS’ Class of 2020 earned this designation firmly proves that the school delivers a far more rigorous education when compared to its sending districts. “This is a great proverbial feather in the caps of over half of the class of 2020,” Matthew Stone, MVRCS’ Assistant Director said. “This will assist them greatly in their ongoing college selection process and beyond. Looking at the numbers once again validates our academic offerings and rigor and makes everyone involved to want more.” Scholarship recipients from Everett include David Nguyen and Isabel Ospina. ׉ 7cassandra://oPxNhFUwnPbfvFw9UM9mTmDgh_uRF6zu_sVHhm_nHT8&`̰]_C#cCׁ]_C#cCց PבCט(u׉׉ 7cassandra://gcfzGOQ5U36sBxntkNRQEm73GPQs-IcPg2qX33hwGsA;`)׉ 7cassandra://7uluPPPEbU7-AxpLWnH-9C-_MTQtCaWzzu9NWQSvTds͐p`J׉ 7cassandra://m-CiPmzdXndU20H5_XUT4dkbgixA73Y3l9SNpiGQ6BQ&`̰׉ 7cassandra://dHYqzXHhMqu3ZqqSKI3rQFBikoja-4JtlWsg7aSWSHEܟx͠]C#cDט((u׉׉ 7cassandra://yPbF4a2TsqUPJVZtipq79yifw5cwubKnH4I1gpyQJ8E`)׉ 7cassandra://bq_5UKDBEn0jSEKJ_lU50MQy9MXuMmK20HBUowg2-dcͅ`J׉ 7cassandra://gow0TRlvj9P5Ni43h_laBYUxB83OHfgqCzxmzfxQjt0%x`̰׉ 7cassandra://mv92pIAP_vqDLcP0a6h17CcOCJWtwbuTGDsnOErcgOA͠]C#cDנ]C#cD$̇9ׁHhttp://SavvySenior.orgׁ ׁ Јנ]C#cD#k̨9ׁHhttp://BenefitsCheckUp.orgׁ ׁ Јנ]C#cD"D9ׁHhttp://HUD.govׁ ׁ Јנ]C#cD!́H9ׁHhttp://FCAA.orgׁ ׁ Јנ]C#cD G9ׁHhttp://NFCC.orgׁ ׁ Ј׉EzPage 24 THE EVERETT ADVOCATE–Friday, October 18, 2019 THE HOUSE AND SENATE.

MORE MONEY FOR SCHOOL BUILDING PROJECTS (S 2350) Senate 38-0, approved an amendment raising from $602 million to $800 million the annual funding cap that the Massachusetts School Building Authority (MSBA) is allowed to spend on school building and renovation projects. The quasi-independent government authority’s job is to fund capital improvement projects in public schools across the state. According to its site, “The MSBA strives to work with local communities to create affordable, sustainable and energy-efficient schools across Massachusetts." “We can’t expect our students to succeed in the 21st century when they’re attending schools built to serve students in the 1950s, which is why it’s crucial that we give the hardworking staff at the MSBA the resources they need to evaluate and finance more projects,” said the amendment sponsor Sen. Barry Finegold (D-Andover). “The increase to the cap will allow the MSBA to spread more dollars across the commonwealth and address the demand for potential projects. With a potential downturn in the economy on the horizon, we need to authorize these projects now so that we create jobs and get these projects off the ground while we are able to do so.” (A “Yes” vote is for the amendment.) Sen. Sal DiDomenico Yes REGIONAL SCHOOLS (S 2350) Senate 38-0, approved an amendment to study reimbursements to school districts for regional school transportation, homeless children and youth transportation, and special education costs. Amendment supporters said this is a step in the right direction to correct some of the inequities in the Chapter 70 formula which is used to distribute school funds to each city and town. “School funding under Chapter 70 has been underfunded for two years,” said amendment co-sponsor Sen. Dean Tran (R-Fitchburg). “I am very happy to see that many of the districts across the commonwealth are now adequately funded. We should continue to work towards growing our economy in order to support the revenue that is necessary to fund our schools, and in support of this bill going forward.” (A “Yes” vote is for the amendment.) Sen. Sal DiDomenico Yes RURAL SCHOOLS COMMISSION (S 2350) Tues. Oct. 8 No House session Wed. Oct. 9 No House session. Fri. Oct. 4 No House session Senate 38-0, approved an amendment creating a special commission to study and make recommendations concerning the long-term fiscal health of rural school districts that are facing or may face declining student enrollment. According to the bill, the commission will study long-term economic, demographic and student enrollment trends and projections in communities that are rural or experiencing population decline; long-term fiscal trends in school districts experiencing declining student enrollment; an analysis of the fiscal health of regional school districts; the impact of regionalization on each contributing municipality, especially in low-income and middle-income areas; and the best policies and practices in other states. Amendment supporters said many rural districts are losing enrollment and they face additional challenges in the coming years. “This commission will be a robust effort to look at real challenges the school districts in my region are facing, due to low or declining student enrollment and other rural challenges,” said the amendment’s sponsor Sen. Adam Hinds (D-Pittsfield). “This will not be a report that sits on a shelf and collects dust. I know I intend to use it to continue my advocacy for rural schools and the students, families and communities they serve.” (A “Yes” vote is for the amendment.) Sen. Sal DiDomenico Yes 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. Critics say that the Legislature does not meet regularly or long enough to debate and vote in public view on the thousands of pieces of legislation that have been filed. They note that the infrequency and brief length of sessions are misguided and lead to irresponsible late-night sessions and a mad rush to act on dozens of bills in the days immediately preceding the end of an annual session. During the week of October 7-11, the House met for a total of 29 minutes while the Senate met for a total of 28 minutes. Mon.

Where can we get help? Drowning in Debt Dear Drowning, Unfortunately, credit card and mortgage debt have become a growing problem for many older Americans who often face medical-related expenses on top of their mortgage and other growing costs. Here are some tips and services that can help. Credit Card Counseling To help you get a handle on your credit card debt, a good place to turn is an accredited credit counseling agency. These are nonprofit agencies that offer free financial information and advice on how to handle financial problems. Depending on the significance of your credit card debt, they can help you sort out your finances and set you up in a debt management plan (DMP), which allows a counselor to negotiate with your creditors to lower your interest rates and eliminate any late fees and other penalties. The agency will then act as a consolidator, grouping your debts together into one payment that you would make, and distributes those funds to your creditors. Typically, the first counseling session is free, but a DMP comes with monthly fees of roughly $20 to $75 a month, depending on the state. To locate a credible agency in your area, use the National Foundation for Credit Counseling website at NFCC.org (800388-2227), or the or the Financial Counseling Association of America FCAA.org (800-450-1794). But make sure that you don’t use a debt settlement company that claims to settle all your debt or cut it in half for a fee without counseling. Most of these companies use deceptive practices and will only leave you more in debt then you already are. Mortgage Counseling If you have fallen behind on your mortgage payments, or if you have already received a letter or phone call about missed payments, you should contact your lender immediately to explain your situation and see if you can work out a payment plan. Be prepared to provide your financial information, such as your monthly income and expenses. You can also get help from a foreclosure prevention counselor. These are HUD-approved, trained counselors that will work with you, examine your financial situation, and offer guidance on how best to avoid default or foreclosure. They can also represent you in negotiations with your lender if you need them to. To find a government-approved housing counseling agency in your area, use the National Foundation for Credit Counseling or Financial Counseling Association of America websites or phone numbers previously listed. Or, for a larger selection of housing counseling options see the Department of Housing and Urban Development website at HUD.gov – click on “Resources” at the top of the page, then on “Foreclosure Avoidance Counseling,” or call 800569-4287. Financial Assistance You also need to make sure you’re not missing out on any financial assistance programs. The National Council on Aging’s website (BenefitsCheckUp.org) contains a database of more than 2,500 federal, state and local programs that can help seniors with prescription drug costs, health care, food, utilities, and other basic needs. The site will help you locate programs that you may be eligible for and will show you how to apply. Send your senior questions to: Savvy Senior, P.O. Box 5443, Norman, OK 73070, or visit SavvySenior.org. Jim Miller is a contributor to the NBC Today show and author of “The Savvy Senior” book.

Upon hearing the need from parents and school administrators, I helped secure a $5,000 donation from the Cambridge Health Alliance Foundation to buy laptop computers at the Devens School so students could practice for the MCAS test, which is now taken online. I also fought for and won a $30,000 grant from the Mass Housing and Shelter Alliance to help Everett students whose families are in crisis, to cover emergency expenses for temporary food and housing. This program has already helped improve graduation rates and lower truancy. This October, I was able to get another $25,000 – and in a second term, I will fight hard to expand this program. I also helped sponsor a mentoring program led by two former Everett High graduates who plan to match other graduates with students to help them navigate life after high school. A pilot program will start this school year. Throughout this past term, I’ve been committed to being accessible and present at many school events and community forums. I’ve even started office hours, so parents can bring their concerns directly to me as well as learn what the role of a School Committee member is. I’m also honored to serve on the search committee for the new superintendent, where I’ve helped lead the charge for an open and community-led process. In a new term, I want to address teen vaping and other youth health concerns, as well as facilitate more programs for youth violence, bullying and drug use prevention. I’m working hard to earn your vote. Together, we can continue to ensure the brightest possible future for our school age children. I would be honored to have your support to continue to serve on the School Committee Ward Five, voted citywide.
