Mayor Joe Curtatone
“For the past three-and-a-half years I’ve worked closely with Mark on the School Committee. Mark has been a strong leader in promoting excellence and equity in our schools. He has reached out to involve parents and community members. We’ve worked together to create unprecedented transparency and openness in the budget process. Mark is a big part of why our already strong schools are continuing to improve at a rapid rate.”
State Senator Pat Jehlen
“I served for 16 years on the Somerville School Committee, so I know how important and challenging that job is. Mark has been an extraordinarily effective School Committee representative for Ward 5. He has been an outspoken advocate for parents and for the students. He has worked effectively with the Superintendent and his colleagues on the School Committee to focus the entire school system on the key challenges to improving teaching and learning.”
State Representative Denise Provost
“As a parent with a child in the public schools and another who graduated from Somerville High School, I know how important the School Committee is. As a resident of Ward 5, I want strong and experienced representation on the School Committee. I am proud to support Mark for re-election.”
