Step 3

December 24, 2010 By warrior02131

I decided that I will not give up the fight as the final decision lies with the elected Boston City Council to approve or reject the Mayor’s budget proposal.

As for where Tommy would go as of next year, the Boston School Department still has no answers. There was no accomodation for him last year, and that is why the classroom at the Agassiz was created this year.

I was quoted in an article in the Boston Bulletin this week. I hope you will give it a look. www.bulletinnewspapers.com

Thank you and to the people from Boston who read this, I encourage you to contact your four city councilors at large and your district city councilor and urge them to reject the budget proposal to be forwarded by Mayor Menino. The City of Boston currently has over $65 million dollars in reserves.

I ask this not only for my son, but for all of the special needs families that will be adversely effected by this proposal. If they can save libraries, why are they shuttering schools?

Respectfully Submitted,

Sincerely,

Wayne J. Wilson, Jr.

    Because, for reasons I don’t understand, there is a much higher value on property then children in this country, or so it seems to me.

    p>Can your son’s Agassiz classroom be recreated in another school as a plan B – ?  If not, that may put the brakes on closing his school – or at least his program.  The “invisible” disabilities are the toughest to get funding and compassion for, aren’t they?  As a parent of a dispraxic, tactile defensive kid with a six year motor delay, between the isolation and the struggles with the public schools, I had to be self employed to be employed at all “back in the day” – glad your son has you fighting for him, so many parents get beaten down and just give up.

It's hilarious watching #mapoli #MAGA Trumpies that support @JimLyonsMA calling Trump lover @CarnevaleMHD a "DC swamp creature" as the fate of the beleaguered @massgop Chairman Lyons is about to be decided Tuesday night.

Many thanks to the North Shore @MAYoungDems chapter for the engaging discussions at your meeting yesterday! As Vice Chair of the @salemdemcc I’m grateful for the work the Young Democrats do to help elect candidates who share our values, here in #SalemMA and across #mapoli.
