THE EVERETT ADVOCATE – FRiDAy, ApRil 26, 2024 Page 3 School Daze: The School Committee Has To Make A Decision! T 8 Norwood St. Everett (617) 387-9810 Open Daily 4:00 PM Closed Sunday Announcing our Classic Specials Dine In Only: he Everett Advocate has received a number of phone calls regarding a serious incident involving the interaction between a School Committee member and a minority school leader. This School Committee woman claimed to be accepting of all people and fought hard to become a member of positive change for the School Committee. The November 2023 city election caused a great divide within the city regarding diversity, equity and inclusion. She claimed the “old Everett” was closed minded and racist against anyone diff erent from them. The “new Everett” is allegedly open-minded, diverse and equity inclusive driven. This School Committee woman claims to be all of what “new Everett” is and wants. Her campaign was based around diversity, equity and inclusion, stating that our elected offi cials need to be transparent, be open, honest and accountable with its citizens on how business is conducted. Her actions toward this minority school employee spoke otherwise. She acted derogatory and inappropriately in both words and actions. A formal complaint has been fi led by the employee. We are waiting for the review. It will be interesting to see the eff ect this racist incident will have on the School Committee. Will they see to it that this member will be accountable for her actions? We will continue to monitor this issue and keep the community informed as it unfolds. * FREE Salad with purchase of Entree, Monday & Tuesdays * Cheese Pizza - Only $10 Catch ALL The Live Sports Action On Our Large Screen TV’s SHOP LOCAL & DROP BY FOR DINNER! www.eight10barandgrille.com SABATINO/MASTROCOLA INSURANCE AGENCY 519 BROADWAY EVERETT, MA 02149 Auto * Home * Boat * Renter * Condo * Life * Multi-Policy Discounts * Commercial 10% Discounts * Registry Service Also Available Sabatino Insurance is proud to welcome the loyal customers of ALWAYS READY TO SERVE YOU: Our Staff are, Emma Davidson, Jeimy Sanchez, Josephine Leone, Marie D’Amore, Rocco Longo, Z’andre Lopez, Anthony DiPierro, Darius Goudreau, Laurette Murphy, Danielle Goudreau and Tina Davidson.
