East Boston
High Health
Center opens
officially, already
changing lives
By John Lynds
By Seth Daniel
When East Boston High
School senior Yvan Martinez
became homeless a little while
ago, there weren’t many places he could turn for the basics
– such as food, shelter and
health care.
However, with the East
Boston High School Health
Center (EBNHC) in place,
operated in the school on
a pilot basis at the time by
East Boston Neighborhood
Health Center, Martinez said
he got access to health care,
counseling and the friendship
of caring adults who helped
him through a tough time and
changed his life.
“Some time ago I was
homeless,” he said, quieting
the room at the high school
health center’s ribbon cutting last Thursday, Sept. 29.
“When you’re in that situation
at my age, you’re truly hopeless and hungry. During a time
Easti Boston High senior Yvan Martinez embraces Paula McNabb Ippolito on Thursday, Sept. 29,
during the ribbon cutting of the East Boston High School-based Health Center, operated officially
now by East Boston Neighborhood Health Center (EBNHC). Martinez said he turned to the health
center when he found himself homeless, and the help he got changed his life forever.
like that, you have to decide
if you want to keep fighting
or if you want to give up. I
decided to keep fighting, but
I didn’t know how. I had to
ask for help. I asked for help
in getting the basic things.
I’m in school here, so I had
access to education. I had a
friend who let me live with
him, so I had food and shelter.
Then I found health care at the
health center. Going there was
something that changed my
life forever and was so much
more than I could have ever
imagined. If it wasn’t for Paula at the health center, I don’t
know if I would have made it
through that time.”
In addition to making it
through, Martinez has excelled – serving as an Umana Scholar for Councilor
Sal LaMattina last year and
being able to travel to Washington, D.C., on an educational trip. All of those things
have opened his eyes up to a
It's East Boston's turn to
host the annual Columbus
Day Parade, a yearly tradition
of Italian American Pride that
is split between here and the
North End every other year.
This year's parade will kick
off from Suffolk Downs and
wind its way down Bennington Street to Chelsea Street
then onto Meridian Street-ending in near Central Square.
"East Boston hosts the parade on even years and since
2010, every year this neighborhood has hosted the parade
it has become better, bigger,
brighter and more exciting,"
said parade organizer and this
year's Chief Marshal Joseph
Ruggiero. "This year's parade
will celebrate East Boston's
support of first responders,
our Italian American heritage,
our Latin American culture
and the neighborhood's rich
diversity."
Ruggiero said as in years'
past there will be great march-
ing bands, dance numbers and
a wave of celebratory floats.
Ruggiero added that the parade would never be possible
without General Chairman
Albert “Buddy” Mangini's
passion for organizing the
event.
"Buddy and the committee
have planned a great event,"
said Ruggiero. "If it wasn't
for people like Buddy, George
Gambale, Rosalie Petralia and
all the volunteers that helped
all year with fundraisers and
events this event, would never
be possible."
The parade honoring Christopher Columbus on the anniversary of his arrival in the
Americas is always a festive
occasion with the bands,
floats, and local dignitaries
making it a “must-see” attraction for people of all ages.
Boston Mayor Martin J.
Walsh will again serve as the
Honorary Chief Marshal of
this year’s parade as he did in
2014.

Wingstop set to open new restaurant in Eastie
By John Lynds
Representatives from the
popular Texas-based chicken
wing restaurant, Wingstop,
stopped by last week's Eagle
Hill Civic Association meeting to update residents on the
restaurant and what owners
hope to accomplish in Eastie.
Wingstop's Laura and John
Rebello said Wingstop, which
has made a name for itself
among foodies as a restaurant that serves up some great
wings and dipping sauces, is
getting close to opening its
first Boston location here in
the neighborhood.
"We are really excited to be
here in East Boston and will
open soon in Central Square
right next door to the East
Boston Social Centers--across
from McDonald's," said Rebello.
Rebello said Wingstop's
focus on family style dining
with a sports theme was a natural fit for the Boston market.
"We all know how serious
Boston takes sports so it's a
good combination of great
food mixing with a great
sports tradition," said Rebello.
Rebello said he was happy
Wingstop's Laura and John Rebello updates the community on
it's new restaurant set to open in Eastie's Central Square.
to announce that Wingstop
has already hired 25 people
from Eastie to work at the new
restaurant.
"Out of these 25 individuals most, if not all, are East
Boston High School graduates or currently enrolled in
the high school so we are really proud to bring jobs to the
neighborhood," said Rebello
to applause last Wednesday
night.
When Wingstop is ready to
open in the next few weeks,
Rebello said Eastie's own Super Bowl Champion Jermaine
Wiggins will be on hand to
help launch the restaurant.
"We really want to be a part
of the East Boston community," said Laura Rebello. "We
have already made contributions to the East Boston Social
Centers and look forward to
being a partner with East Boston's sports programs, as well
as the annual Kindergarten
Parade that we got a chance to
see for the first time this year."
The Rebellos also held an
abutters meeting and tour of
the new Wingstop Saturday so
neighbors could get a sneak
peak at the new restaurant.
Wingstop recently opened
its first Boston-area location
in Medford but the Wingstop's
Central Square location will
be the first official Boston
franchise. Both the square and
Wingstop location are under
construction and the new fast
food restaurant will add another lunch and dinner option
in the newly rehabbed square.
Wingstop began in Dallas
and was acquired by Roark
Capital in 2010. Wingstop
was touted by Technomic as
one of the 10 fastest growing restaurant concepts in the
United States.
Since opening its first
location in Texas in 1994,
Wingstop has sold over two
billion wings and currently
has more than 650 restaurants
open or in development in 34
states and Mexico.
Wingstop's sole focus is on
chicken wings according to
its menu and website. Patrons
will be able to chose between
classic wings, boneless strips
or crispy tenders. Then patrons can chose from an wide
variety of sauces and rubs
like, Atomic Mango Habanero, Cajun, Louisiana Rub,
Hickory Smoked BBQ, Lemon Pepper, Garlic Parmesan,
Hawaiian or Teriyaki.
Wingstop will also serve
up sides like fries, beans and
coleslaw fresh as well as
drinks that can be ordered as a
combo with the wings.

Meet Father Eric Bennett,
Sacred Heart's new parish priest
By John Lynds
While the community
fought hard to keep beloved
Sacred Heart Parish Priest,
Father Wayne Belschner, his
move to Deedham has lead to
arrival of a new leader of the
church who said he's ready to
continue the good work Father Belschner did in the community.
Fr. Eric Bennett, a 36-yearold native Rhode Islander,
arrived at Sacred Heart in August and has settled in nicely
to his new assignment here in
East Boston.
"What I love is when you
look out from the alter you
see Spanish speakers, Italian
speakers, Vietnamese speakers, the community is a real
melting pot of people," said
Fr. Bennett, who also speaks
Spanish and Italian aside from
English. "The first couple of
weeks doing the Italian Mass
was a little rough but the parishioners here were cheering
me on so it was great."
Fr. Bennett was born and
raised in Rhode Island and is
one of eight children, three
sisters and five brothers. His
parents, Dudley and Kathleen
(Foley) Bennett still live in
East Greenwich, Rhode Island.
Growing up, Fr. Bennett
attended local public schools
in East Greenwich before enrolling at Bishop Hendricken High School in Warwick,
Rhode Island.
After high school, he was a
student at Boston University’s
Sargent College. Upon graduation from BU, he worked
as a physical therapist first

City Councilor Sal LaMattina said early voting will help
ensure residents with limited
access to the polls on election
day more time to vote.
"We have a lot of elderly
residents, young professionals, parents and students that
sometimes find it hard to vote
on Election Day whether it's
work, school, running around
dropping their children off the
various activities," said LaMattina. "People have very
busy lives these days and this
will allow voters in my District an extra two days to head
to polls and cast their vote in
this very important election."
LaMattina added that voters may also request an early
voting ballot by mail, and may
return them in person at City
Hall or by mail. Unlike Absentee Voting, an explanation
is no longer needed to vote
early. Any Boston voter who
wishes to vote early may.
"East Boston residents can
also vote at City Hall during
the early voting period," said
LaMattina.
City Hall will be Boston's
main early voting site, with
voting daily during normal
business hours and will also
be open on five evenings for

City Hall early voting will

Early Voting is Coming to Boston
PUBLISHER EMERITUS: John A. Torrone
VOTERS SHOULD PAY
ATTENTION TO THE FOUR
BALLOT QUESTIONS
On November 8, Massachusetts voters will go to the polls to
elect a new President of the United States as well as other state
and county positions on the ballot.
However, voters need to pay attention to the four ballot questions that will have an effect on the Commonwealth in general.
Voters should consider checking off their opinion on all four
questions.
This article is not an endorsement of a Yes or No but an
encouragement for voters to make a decision on the questions that
are as follows:
Question 1
The Expanded Gaming Initiative would allow the Gaming
Commission to issue an additional slots license.
Question 2
The Increase Access to Public Charter Schools Initiative would
authorize the approval of up to 12 new charter schools or enrollment expansions in existing charter schools by the state Board of
Elementary and Secondary Education per year.
Question 3
The Farm Animal Containment Initiative would prohibit certain methods of farm animal containment.
Question 4
The Marijuana Legalization Initiative would legalize recreational marijuana for individuals at least 21 years old.
We encourage our readers to visit ma.gov for the 2016 Ballot
questions along with the pros and cons of each. As the election
nears, the state typically publishes overviews of each question,
with an explanation of exactly what “Yes” and “No” responses
mean for each question. Many people bring a prepared checklist
of their answers into the voting booth because some questions are
confusing as worded.
The outcome of each of these questions will truly affect the lives
of residents in our community.

By Mayor Martin J. Walsh
Voting in Boston is about to
become more convenient. For
the first time, registered voters
who reside in the City of Boston will be able to take part in
early voting, ahead of the November 8th Presidential election. This exciting new initiative, made possible by the
2014 Elections Reforms Law,
will give Boston voters more
options in choosing when and
where to vote.
For two weeks, between
October 24 and November 4,
early voting polling locations
will be open across the City,
creating more opportunities
for voters to let their voices be
heard. We’ve selected polling
locations based off of community feedback and smart planning. Voters will also be able
to request early voting ballots
by mail, which they can then
return by mail or in person to
City Hall.
One of the reasons this
initiative is innovative is that
voters participating during
the early voting period will be
able to cast their ballot at any
polling location in the City
-- regardless of what neighborhood they live in. We hope
that this additional flexibility
will allow for more people to
take part in the most critical
part of our democracy.
Our lives are busier and
more complicated than they
used to be, so it takes work
to ensure voting is accessible
to everyone. That’s why we
made early voting possible
with this year’s City budget:
we allocated $670,000 to implement early voting, which
includes resources for a citywide marketing campaign and
long-term investments such as
electronic poll books, used to
process voters at the polling
locations, that will be useful in
future elections. Bostonians’
lives will continue with their
busy pace, and our investment
in early voting means every-
one will be able to participate
in the civic process.
After this year’s election,
Elections Department Commissioner Dion Irish and
his team will evaluate what
worked and what could be
improved upon for future
elections. Our goal is for the
City of Boston to serve as
an example for communities
across the Commonwealth
and beyond -- and if you’re a
Boston voter, I hope you will
take part.
Early voting will give everyone more opportunity to
vote. For first time-voters,
busy moms and dads, young
professionals, persons with
disabilities and our seniors,
this initiative will allow you
to make a plan to vote that
works around your schedule,
not the other way around.
Making a plan to vote is important. As we near this early
voting period, I encourage all
voters to find a location that
works for you. There are important decisions to be made
in the voting booth and it requires full participation from
every voter.
I’m proud that Boston has
taken a thoughtful approach
to early voting. As citizens of
a country founded on the idea
that the government is formed
by the people, we are afforded
the opportunity to choose who
represents us -- a right we cannot take for granted. Creating
the conditions that allow more
people to participate in the
process will make for a stronger City, state and nation.
Whether you plan to vote
during the early voting period,
or on Election Day, November 8, let your voice be heard.
Every vote counts.
A full early voting schedule
can be found at www.boston.
gov/early-voting.
Op-Ed
Things I never knew about Hillary Clinton
By Donna Segreti Reilly
Before watching the Democratic National Convention
(DNC), I knew that Hillary
Rodham Clinton was the
First Lady of Arkansas and
the United States, and that
she led the fight for universal health care but lost. I did
NOT know, however, that she
worked with Republicans and
Democrats to help create the
successful Children’s Health
Insurance Program (CHIP),
which has provided health
coverage to more than 8 million children and cut the uninsured rate for children in half.
I also knew that Hillary
was Senator of New York for
6 years and Secretary of State.
I also knew that in 1995 at
the U.N. Fourth World Conference on Women, against
many people’s advice, she
declared, “Human rights are
women’s rights, and women’s
rights are human rights once
and for all.”
I didn’t realize, however,
that Hillary Rodham Clinton,
following her Methodist mandate to “Do good to all the
people you can...,” was active
in her Church youth group
and got to see Dr. Martin Luther King speak in Chicago.
This event sparked her lifelong passion for social justice.
In addition, while in law
school, Hillary worked a
summer job researching the
education and health of migrant farm workers and their
children and registered voters
in Texas. After law school,
Hillary worked for the Children’s Defense Fund (CDF).
She went door-to-door in
New Bedford, MA, gathering stories about the lack of
schooling for children with
disabilities. This led to legislation requiring the state
to provide quality education
for students with disabilities.
With the CDF, she worked
in South Carolina to separate
young boys who had been
housed in prisons with older
male inmates. In Arkansas,
Hillary co-founded Arkansas
Advocates for Children and
Families. All these things I
did not know about Hillary
Clinton.
This commitment to public
service and fighting for others---especially children and
families--has stayed with Hillary Clinton throughout her
life.
One big thing I didn’t know
about Hillary Clinton was
that, as New York Senator,
she went down to the Twin
Towers area after the 09-1101 terrorist attacks to see for
herself the impact upon first
responders and the city as a
whole. Hillary pushed the
Bush administration to secure
$20 billion to rebuild New
York and fought to provide
health care for responders
who were at Ground Zero.
She worked across the aisle
to expand TRICARE, giving
members of the Reserves and
National Guard and their families better access to health
care.
I also didn’t know that
Hillary Clinton helped to expand broadband to remote
rural areas and small towns
in New York. Via her “Farmto-Fork” initiative, she helped
NY farmers and producers
sell their products to NY’s
restaurants, schools, colleges,
and universities.
As Secretary of State, Hillary built a coalition for tough
new sanctions against Iran
that brought them to the negotiating table. However, I only
learned that Hillary Clinton
brokered a ceasefire between
Israel and Hamas that ended
a war and protected Israel’s
security. Former Republican Secretary of State Henry
Kissinger said Hillary Clinton
“ran the State Department in
the most effective way that
I’ve ever seen.”
All of these things, I didn’t
know about Hillary Clinton.
What I did learn, however, is
that Hillary is a person who
researches, does her homework, and gets things done.
She’s not a quitter. She’s
a troubleshooter. She’s a
problem-solver, not a bomb
thrower.
On that note, I fear for our
country and its impact on the
world if Donald Trump becomes President of the United
States. Aside from his open
denigration of women, Muslims, journalists with disabilities, and immigrants; Trump
has a history of bankruptcies,
lawsuits, and pulling out
and not paying contractors
who’ve undertaken his projects in New Jersey and elsewhere.
What scares me most,
however, is that Trump has
proposed further tax cuts for
big corporations and reductions in regulations, including labor regulations. He
plans to make the American
workforce “competitive with
Mexico and China” by paying
our workers less and less, like
workers in Mexico, China,
Bangladesh, Turkey, etc.--where most of HIS products
are made. If workers strike,
he’ll let factories close and
will bring the low-paying jobs
to low wage, non-union states
until all workers will take any
job at any pay scale. (“The
Detroit News,” 8/15, “Trump
suggests moving some car
production from Michigan.”)
Trump has also said, “I
think a low minimum wage
is not a bad thing for this
country.” (“The Washington
Send us Your News
Times,” 8/15) In 11/15, “The
New York Times” reported
“Donald Trump Insists That
Wages Are Too High.”) All
this when people working
full time are having a hard
time putting food on the table, paying their utilities, and
educating their kids. At the
same time, however, there’s
no mention of tremendous
profits not being taxed due
to loopholes and inversions
stashing profits in off shore
tax havens. Note, Mr. Trump
still has failed to publicize his
tax report. Clearly, Donald
Trump does not have the best
interests of American workers
at heart.
Background and experience matter to me when I
consider voting for someone.
From a review of her background, I know that Hillary
Clinton will continue to effect
positive change through investment in new, good-paying jobs, college financing
reform, and better rules for
corporations to pay their fair
share of taxes, share their
profits with their employees
and ship fewer jobs and profits overseas. I believe that
Hillary Clinton will continue
to “put families first and make
sure our policies match how
you actually work and live in
the 21st Century.” (Hillary
Clinton)
Hillary has earned my
vote. I hope you will consider the facts of this article and
vote for her too. For those

GUILD DAY OF SERVICE
Photos and story by Marianne Salza During the Day of Service
at the Curtis Guild Elementary School, on Sept. 30, students learned about gravity,
static electricity and the laws
of attraction. In partnership
with Boston Cares, the largest volunteer agency in New
England, some 50 volunteers
from Vertex Pharmaceuticals
painted the playground walls
green in honor of the Guild
mascot, the gator, and decorated them with words and
phrases that encourage kindness, community, respect,
excellence, and creativity.
At the Boston Cares STEM
(Science, Technology, Engineering, Math) Fair, in the auditorium, students engineered

Massport will host a community meeting to discuss
two Logan Airport projects. Massport plans to
modernize Logan’s International Terminal E, which
is operating with the same number of gates it had in
1974 when it served 1.5 million people compared to
almost 6 million today. Massport proposes to add four
new gates (three gates were already approved in the
1990s but never built) to the existing airport footprint.
Last year, 100,000 vehicles were diverted from Logan
parking structures because parking facilities were
full. Massport is beginning the environmental review
process to build 5,000 new parking spaces to meet the
growing demand for parking.
The LIAG, Massport and East Boston elected
officials have discussed and prioritized community
commitments that will help Massport balance its role
as an economic engine as well as a good neighbor.
You are invited to attend this community meeting to
learn more about these complex Logan projects and
proposed community commitments for East Boston.

A short story about a
motorcycle.
And a sudden turn.
When she was a young college student,
Elisabeth Marra had a serious motorcycle
accident that ultimately changed her life.
Two years after the crash, her painful open
fractures had failed to heal. Then she heard
about a new and complex surgery pioneered
by a surgeon who used a patient’s own stem
cells to concentrate the healing process. This
time, her surgery and subsequent therapy
were successful.
Elisabeth’s experience caused her to redirect her own career aspirations. Inspired by
the medical professionals who helped her
reclaim her active lifestyle, she changed her
major to study physical therapy—a
profession where her own experience could
help other patients prevail through difficult
recoveries.
We tell Elisabeth Marra’s story here to
illustrate two of the most profound messages
we know. Don’t give up, and remember to
give back. If reading it inspires just one more
person to achieve something special, then its
telling here has been well worth while.

The new pilot of the Jets
Michael Smith named new athletics coordinator at EBHS
By Cary Shuman
Michael Smith has been an
outstanding teacher and coach
in East Boston since 1994. He
is the leader of the East Boston High School ninth grade
academy and the director of
the history program.
This year he has added a
prestigious new title: athletics coordinator of East Boston
High School. He will oversee
the school’s 13 varsity teams
that compete in fall, winter,
and spring sports seasons.
Dave Arinella, dean of East Boston coaches, is pictured with new
athletics coordinator Michael Smith at the school.
Smith succeeds Ryan Conway
in the position.
Headmaster Phil Brangiforte, a former athletics coordinator, said was pleased to
have Smith at the helm of the
Jets’ program.
‘Mr. Smith knows athletics,
has outstanding experience
in the school community and
he’s the best person for the
job,” said Brangiforte. “I’m
confident that he will lead our
program to continued excellence. He knows the tradition
of East Boston High School
and he will implement some
great ideas and expand our
athletic program further.”
Smith is a 1985 graduate
of Austin Preparatory High
School where he played soccer and baseball. He played
one year of college lacrosse
at Roger Williams in Rhode
Island and graduated from
UMass/Boston.
After teaching physical
education at the O’Donnell,
P.J. Kennedy, and McKay
Schools, he was appointed
a dean at East Boston High
School in 1994. He is also the
EBHS softball coach.
“I love East Boston,” said
Smith. “There are so many
great kids, like the young
man, Tyrone Figueroa, who
was a superstar athlete at East
Boston High School. I’ve
known him since he was in
elementary school. He’s now
an algebra teacher at the high
school and coaching JV football and he’s my assistant softball coach.”
Smith has already launched
an “Athlete of the Week”
recognition program on the
school Web site. He has set
a goal of sending a greater
number of East Boston student-athletes on to compete in
college programs.
“Because I’ve been through
the process myself (his daughter, Miranda, is a lacrosse
player at Nichols College), I
feel I’ll be able to help other
student-athletes as well,” said
Smith, who also has a daughter, Emma, a college student,
and a son, Evan, 7.
Smith also hopes to take
advantage of the in-house academic support program for
athletes, who must maintain a
1.67 grade point average to be
East Boston High School Headmaster Phil Brangiforte (right)
wishes Michael Smith good luck in his new position as athletics
coordinator at the high school.
eligible.
“My goal is to increase the
number of students who participate in the Boston Scholastic Athletes Zone [tutoring
program],” said Smith.
Smith is excited about the
excellent start of the school’s
volleyball, boys and girls soccer, and football seasons this
fall.
“We have a fantastic set of
coaches in all sports who value athletics as well as academics,” said Smith. “We always
want our students to demonstrate the class and sportsmanship that East Boston is known
for and live up to the standard
of integrity and excellence that
[the late] Mr. Anthony Albano
instituted in this school – that
we do it the right way.”
Group ramps up efforts to defeat Question 1
By John Lynds
She was front in center
during No Eastie Casino's
fight against placing a resort-style casino at Suffolk
Downs in Eastie and now
Celeste Myers is digging her
heels in for another fight to
defeat Question 1.
At a recent community
meeting Myers and her group,
the Committee for Sustainable
and Responsible Economic
Development, urged residents
to vote against the state-wide
ballot question in November.
This proposed law would
"allow the state Gaming Commission to issue one additional Category 2 License, which
would permit operation of a
gaming establishment with no
table games and not more than
1,250 slot machines."
The problem with the
question, said Myers, is the
language is too specific and
could only mean a slot parlor
for the Eastie/Revere border
near Suffolk Downs, the site
of the losing casino bid three
years ago. Suffolk Downs has
nothing to do with the ballot
question and it has received
widespread
condemnation
from elected officials like
Speaker Robert DeLeo, Sen.
Joseph Boncore, Rep. Adrian Madaro and Gov. Charlie
Baker.
The proposed law would
authorize "the (state's Gaming) Commission to request
applications for the additional license to be granted to a
gaming establishment located on property that is at least
four acres in size; adjacent to
and within 1,500 feet of a race
track, including the track’s
additional facilities, such as
the track, grounds, paddocks,
barns, auditorium, amphitheater, and bleachers; where a
horse racing meeting may
physically be held; where a
horse racing meeting shall
have been hosted; and not
separated from the race track
by a highway or railway."
"This can only mean one
place so we should all be concerned. This language is too
specific to our area and we are
urging people to talk to everyone they know and encourage
them to vote against this measure," said Myers. "Already
elected officials, Suffolk
Downs, horsemen associations and others have opposed
the ballot question because
expanded gaming in the state
is far too new to begin over
saturating the market."
Myers and her group were
able to quickly form the Committee for Sustainable and Responsible Economic Development in response to Question
1 and will also be on the ballot
as 'arguments against' the ballot question.
According to Myers the
group argues only one casino
will have opened in the Commonwealth as of Election
Day, and up to three massive
resort casinos and at least one
tribal casino could be operating within the next few years.
"Even at this early stage,
casino lobbyists already wield
disproportionate power in the
Massachusetts legislature,"
the groups argument against
reads. "If Question 1 were to
pass, we should expect that
this result will immediately be
used in support of more campaigns for new casino licenses,
with even more illusory promises of jobs and revenues. This
early push for expansion is especially concerning given the
Wall Street Journal‘s warning
that the Northeastern U.S. casino market was approaching
a “saturation point” even before the first Massachusetts
casino opened in June 2015."
They also argue that Question 1 in no way benefits Suffolk Downs or any other race
track.
"Suffolk Downs itself
would have no ownership interest in the proposed casino,
and would receive no direct
benefit from it," said Myers
last week. "While a percentage of any Massachusetts
casino’s profits are legally required to go toward the statewide Horse Racing Fund, this
fund alone may not be enough
to save New England horse
racing."
Celeste Myers of the Committee for Sustainable & Responsible Economic Development
urges Eastie votes to vote
against Question 1 in November at a community meeting
last week.

This is the season when many high school seniors, and
their parents, will make a most important decision—picking a college or university that is the right fit academically,
financially, and socially. As chancellor of the University of
Massachusetts Boston and a father of college students, I know
that finding academic excellence, an inviting community,
and an appropriate price point are critical elements in the
decision-making process.
I’m proud that UMass Boston has established itself as
a student-centered, urban public research university that
welcomes and supports students of all backgrounds by
providing them with an excellent education and modest
tuition and fees. We take pride in fostering a community of
diversity and inclusion, and continue to be the most diverse
university in New England, even as we have grown from 1,227
students at our founding to17,000 today.
As our student population has increased, so have the
opportunities we provide, with approximately 200 academic
programs to choose from in 11 schools and colleges. Our
students pursue degrees in biology, psychology, management, exercise and health sciences, nursing, engineering,
and many other fields. They keep our campus lively by
participating in the dozens of clubs, NCAA sports, and
intramural athletic teams available to UMass Boston
students. And they inspire us with their determination to
heighten their learning experience by studying abroad in
Spain, Czech Republic, Germany, Greece, and elsewhere.
In an effort to help make the college application process
less stressful, UMass Boston offers prospective students the
opportunity to apply now and get an early decision. Students
looking to complete the application process this fall can apply by November 1 for Early Action admission. Applicants who
take advantage of this option will receive a decision by the end
of the year, and have plenty of time to start planning for freshman year at UMass Boston. For those who need a little more
time, the regular admissions deadline is March 1.
I encourage students to take advantage of our Early Action
option, which also has among its benefits a first opportunity
at more than $150 million in financial aid that UMass Boston
awards each year.
We have also launched a pilot program in which high
school students who have a grade point average of 3.5 or higher
can be considered for admission without SAT scores.

benefits of attending Boston’s public research university, visit

EAST BOSTON HIGH SCHOOL CLASS OF 1991 25TH REUNION
Photos by Cary Shuman
The East Boston High
School Class of 1991 celebrated its 25th Reunion on
Saturday, Sept. 24 at the Orient Heights Yacht Club.
Classmates enjoyed a buffet dinner and musical entertainment, but what they enjoyed most of all was seeing
their friends and reminiscing
about their days growing up
together in Eastie and attending East Boston High School.
Members of the East Boston High School Class of 1991 are pictured at their 25th reunion at Orient Heights Yacht Club.

Some classmates at the reunion started school together in kindergarten and

East Boston High School in 1991. Pictured at the reunion are Sharon Hurley, Roberta Franchi, Pina Schena, Victoria Salvagno, Angela Calandrini, and Stephanie
King.
Six Eastie schools named Level 1 schools by the state
By John Lynds
It was all high fives and
celebratory applause last
week when six East Boston Public Schools were
named Level 1 schools in
the state's school accountability measure report that
measures how schools narrow proficiency gaps.
Massachusetts Department of Elementary and
Secondary
Education's
2016 accountability results showed that several of these demonstrated
improved performance in
various key assessments
while other Eastie school
retained their Level 1 ranking.
Altogether, four Eastie
schools in the Boston Public Schools system rose to
top Level 1 status for meeting assessment targets. The
schools here were four
out of twelve school district-wide that rose to this
status.
In Eastie, the Bradley
Elementary, Umana Academy, McKay K-8, and
the Otis Elementary all
received Level 1 status.
Both the Otis and Bradley jumped from a Level 2
last year to a Level 1 this
year while the UMana, in
its first year of eligibility
for the ranking since being
converted from a Middle
School to a K-8 School, received Level 1 status.
The Mckay made the
biggest jump and went
from a Level 3 to a Level 1 school. The McKay
increased its overall Composite Performance Index
(CPI) in English Language
Arts by 10 points and its
overall Science CPI by
13.6 points. Every student
subgroup in this school
similarly
experienced
"high" levels of growth.
"Our most improved
schools are serving some of
our most vulnerable populations, which shows that
Boston Public Schools is
a leader in this work," said
Boston School Committee Chairperson Michael
O'Neill. "Our teachers in
all of our schools are fearless in tackling challenges
and doing everything possible to close the opportunity and achievement
gaps."
The McKay also received
commendations
from the state as did the
Bradley and the P.J. Ken-
nedy Elementary.
The Adams Elementary
and the Kennedy retained
their Level 1 status when
the report was released.
"When families and
students go to enroll in a
school in East Boston there
is now a higher concentration of Level One schools,"
said BPS Instructional
Superintendent
Tommy
Welch. "With more schools
in East Boston being designated Level 1 or even Level 2 schools there's a better
chance now for families to
get into a high quality East
Boston school."
Welch said the state's report is the result of a lot of
amazing things going on in
Eastie schools.
"Here in East Boston and
across the city school leaders, teachers, staff are all
collaborating and sharing
best practises," said Welch.
"It is no longer a competition but a collaboration to
bring new and fresh ideas
into schools that may exist in other schools in the
district. Our team does not
operate in a silo and something that is happening at
one school may benefit another school so let's bring
those practises there."
Welch said a lot of newer principals are bringing
fresh ideas to the team in
Eastie. Welch points out
that some principals have
been in the classroom for
5, 10 or 15 years at another
school and are now taking
those strategies with them
to lead schools here in
Eastie.
"There is something really special in these group
of leaders," said Welch.
BPS
Superintendent
Tommy Chang said said
the newly designated Level 1 schools serve as bright
spots for the district as BPS
enhances student achievement.
"Our schools are empowering talented teams of
educators who consistently
collaborate to ensure every
student succeeds," he said.
Mayor Martin Walsh
said since being elected
his top priority is creating
a public school system that
gives all of our young people an opportunity to succeed.
"I am proud of the improvements we have made
across so many of our
schools as a result of the
hard work of our students,
teachers and staff," he said.
"We will continue working
everyday so that every single one of our schools has
the resources to prepare
our students for a bright
future."
About the report:
In February 2012, Massachusetts was granted
flexibility from certain No
Child Left Behind (NCLB)
requirements. Prior to
seeking this flexibility, the
Commonwealth’s schools
and districts were assessed
based on both the state’s
five-level framework for
accountability and assistance and the requirements
of NCLB. The 2012-13
school year marked the
first year of Massachusetts’
implementation of a unified system for classifying
districts and schools.
Massachusetts’ accountability system measures
each school and district’s
progress toward the goal
of reducing proficiency gaps by half between
the 2010-11 and 2016-17
school years. Massachusetts use the Progress and
Performance Index (PPI)
and school percentiles to
classify schools into one
of five accountability and
assistance levels. Schools
making sufficient progress
toward narrowing proficiency gaps are classified
into Level 1, while the
state’s lowest performing
schools are classified into
Levels 4 and 5. In general,
districts are classified into
a level based on the level
of their lowest performing
school.
The chairs of the reunion committee, Khrista
Crystal, Diane Killion Piemonte, and Jodi Festa, who did a great job organizing the event.

The East Boston CDC
(Community Development
Corporation), one of three proponents vying to develop the
city-owned former Hess Site
on Condor Street, appeared
before the Eagle Hill Civic
Association last Wednesday
night to pitch its plan for the
site as well as introduce the
CDC's three prospective tenants that would operate businesses at the site.
The industrial parcel of
land that once housed storage
tanks for Hess Oil is zoned as
a Designated Port Area (DPA)
so a majority of the activity at
the site needs to be marine industrial use.
CDC head, Al Caldarelli
said the CDC would be the
long term lessee of the property and would use the space
to consolidate three existing
Eastie businesses looking to
expand.
Caldarelli said his proposal would limit traffic, cause
no odor and create jobs in the
community. The CDC plans to
na on Marginal Street and Peter Merullo's Semper Diving
and Marine.
All three businesses have
roots in marine industrial use
EBNHC
State Rep. Adrian Madaro said
he believed the high school
health center should be a
model for how services are
delivered.

Board, and Tommy Welch of Boston Public Schools.

build three buildings as well
as a tot lot park, harbor walk
and dog park as community
benefits. The three buildings
would house three longstand-
ing Eastie businesses. These
businesses include John Zirpolo's Cora Group, an expansion of Dan Noonan's already
successful shipyard and mari-
All three have put together
solid maritime focused uses
with community benefits but
the community seemed to be
leaning towards the CDC proposal.
City Wide Organics submitted a proposal to convert
the property into a organic
waste recycling plant that will
convert waste into renewable
energy and fertilizer. They
also plan to create public outdoor space around the perimeter of the plant much like the
MWRA Deer Island facility in
Winthrop.
Eastern Salt of Chelsea's
plan to place a 'buffer' salt pile,
like the company has across
the Meridian Street Bridge
in Chelsea, on the Hess Site.
The salt would be barged over
from Chelsea and distributed
around the region during winter storms. Eastern Salt's plan
does include community benefits like a harbor walk and
outdoor green space residents
are concerned the use could
generate 40 to 50 truck trips
per day during the height of
winter storm activity.
with Cora Group responsible
for repairs and operations of
bridges in the area, The Boston Shipyard and Marina on
Marginal Street would expand
their boat repair work in the
neighborhood and Semper, a
commercial diving and marine operation, would like to
expand boat storage and repair opportunities in Eastie.
Some in the audience like
Joe Mario of Century 21 Mario Real Estate voiced his support of the CDC's plans--signaling out business owner
John Zirpolo for his community philanthropy and practice
of hiring locally.
"You can't lose businesses
like this in East Boston," said
Mario. "If they need space to
expand we need to help them
because it would be a shame,
a real shame to see them leave
the neighborhood after they
have done so much for local
organizations and people."
So far the city has not selected a designated developer
for the site and the CDC is
competing against City Wide
Organics and the Eastern
Salt Company from Chelsea.

brighter future, he said, and
changed the course of his life.
EBNHC CEO Manny
Lopes said that making the
health center official and
building out a new facility
there is exactly in line with the
mission of EBNHC.
“For us, this is our opportunity to continue our vision
and meet our patients where
they are at,” he said. “In this
case, it’s the 1,500 students
who attend high school. This
is meeting the students and
our patients where they’re at.”
School officials were also
very complimentary of the
center.
“The opportunity and the
services here are something
we would like to be replicated
throughout the City, but now
is a very special opportunity
in East Boston,” said Tommy
Welch, instructional superintendent for Boston Public
Schools. “I look forward to
expanding these opportunities
for our students.”
East Boston High Principal
Phil Brangiforte said making
the center official in the Center allows more kids to see the
doctor.
“We’ve always had the
school-based health center,
but it was never official,” he
said. “They would always see
our kids, but they would eventually have to refer them…No
matter where a child lives in
the City or if they have health
insurance, if they are a student
of East Boston High School,
they will be seen.”
The health center is open
during school hours and provides services such as sports
physicals,
immunizations,
chronic health issues like asthma, headaches, sore throats,
sexual health like STD treatment and birth control counseling, and emotion issues
like depression, anxiety and
sexual identity. There are also
counseling services for things
like pregnancy prevention and
healthy eating and healthy
lifestyles.
Dr. Tom Silva said he believes
the new center will lead to
better health care for students.
EBNHC CEO Manny Lopes said having an official school-based
health center in the high school is part of the center’s mission of
meeting patients where they are.
Eastie High students Yvan Martinez, David Wilson and Nicole Oliveira cut the ribbon on the new
health center while Principal Phil Brangiforte and Chief Medical Officer Jackie Fantes hold the
ribbon.

Theater Review
Fiddlehead Theatre’s ‘Priscilla Queen of the Desert’ a Splashy Spectacular Musical
floral dress, while gorgeous, leggy show “girls” garbed in smashing gowns and headdresses greeted theatergoers, offering to pose
with them for a photo, at no cost.
While glitz and glamor permeated the Shubert Theatre lobby, the
real eye-popping thrills awaited in
the two-hour, rollicking musical.
One theater critic colleague
quipped later, “This production is a showcase for Stacey’s fantastic costumes.”
And during intermission, another critic enthusiastically commented, “I don’t know what
the show is all about, but it’s a
lot of fun, and I’m lovin‘ it.”
So did the audience. But don’t
be blinded by the spectacular array of colorful, gorgeous, shiny
costumes, background and sets.
There is, indeed, a plot. There’s
also an underlying message
delivered in several anthemic,
memorable, hit songs, including
“I Will Survive,” “Girls Just Wanna Have Fun,” and oft-reprised
By Sheila Barth
[email protected]
Fiddlehead Theatre Company Producing Artistic Director-Director-Costume Designer
Stacey Stephens stood there,
in all his glory, wearing a hot
pink suit, long, glittery silverand-gold necktie-pin suspended from his chest pocket, as he
sauntered around on outrageously high, glittery, strappy spike
heels, greeting people, fluttering
his long, faux pink eyelashes,
while reveling in their praise.
It was opening night of the theater
company’s lavish Boston premiere production of comic musical, “Priscilla, Oueen of the Desert,” an Australian import about a
traveling trio of male cross-dressing female impersonators.
Fiddlehead’s sedate Artistic Director Meg Fofonoff “dressed”
for the company’s lavish season-opening occasion,too, sporting a shaggy hot pink jacket and
own singing instead; while Andrew Giordano, portraying Tick/
Mitzi, mediates between the
two perpetually sparring mates.
Distraught and sobbing, Bernadette is grieving over “her”
25-year-old lover, who died of
asphyxiation, breathing in peroxide fumes while dying his hair.
Adam, better known as Felicia,
is daring, eagerly loving the idea
of Tick’s proposed new adventure, to travel across the Outback
and perform in Alice Springs.
Tick is miserable. He needs
something different. Something
is gnawing at him, and he has to
escape his lifestyle for awhile.
His ex-wife, Marion (Val Moranto), sent a letter, requesting Tick
and his friends perform at the
Alice Springs casino where she
works. She’s in a bind, and needs
to fill an entertainment slot there.
But Marion has a more important
reason for her request. During
their brief marriage, the couple
had a son, Benji, whom Tick
song, “It’s Raining Men,” which
this cast of 24 performs admirably. The live orchestra, conducted by Jose C. Simbulan,sounds
terrific, and three divas - Tamala Baldwin,Onyie Nwachukwu
and Lindsay Roberts - dressed
in glittery gowns, with white
cotton candy-style coiffures, introduce scenes and punctuate
hit songs, a’ la The Supremes.
There isn’t a dull moment
here, especially with the
show’s snappy, double entendre lyrics and dialogue
that pepper the performance.
Headlining as three cross-dressing, gay guys crossing the desert
in Priscilla, the traveling van,
are Larry Daggett, portraying
Bernadette, former popular,
glamorous Les Girls female
impersonator, who believes the
old methods of using lip-synching is an art. Matthew Tiberi,
Bernadette’s young, brash foil
and modern cross-dressing performer, insists they must do their

and asks frequently to meet his
dad, she writes. Tick longs to see
his son, too, but fears the boy will
be ashamed of him because he’s
gay and a female impersonator.
Choreographer Arthur Cuadros has created lively, energetic
moves, from strutting “queens”
on the stage and runway, to
blustery macho men whooping and fisticuffing away in
“Thank God I’m A Country
Boy” “I Love the Nightlife,”
“Boogie Wonderland,” “Go

Mind,” with Benji (talented
youngster Cameron Levesque).
It’s not all smooth traveling.
The bus breaks down. They’re
also faced with feisty, heartbreaking bullying, and vandalism. Some ruffians scrawled
profanities in huge red lettering on the side of their bus.
There’s sadness and silliness, hilarity and humanity.
The trio knows they don’t belong
anywhere. They know they must
stick together, but in “Priscilla,”
they unexpectedly encounter
admiration, love and a glimmer
of hope, even in the untamed,
rough-and-tumble Outback. And
the feelgood finale is superb,
JOHN J.
