Monfredo's call for assistance

In Friday's In City Times, School Committee member John Monfredo uses his column to make the case for additional school funding:

"The general feeling of the School Committee is that we cannot enter our seventh year in a row with another deficit budget and still maintain a quality school system. Unlike businesses, we can’t make up the lost year in a child’s life. Remember our children have already gone through six years of multi-million dollar budget deficits and we just cannot go through another deficit budget and try to be an effective school system."


You can grab an ICT on Friday, or (as it doesn't appear online) read the rest of the column here.

Tracy--The Monfredo article I see is blank. Do I have to join that Google Group to read it?

Nope. All the pages in the group are public.

Somehow I just blew it in posting. It's fixed now!
